At the time of writing, I now have 98 windows updates waiting to download but computer will not install them.

Dear tankman55

It seems that the computer is the smartest ! :)

To help you you have to specify which OS you run, what you have installed already, and what warning you get when trying to download/install the updates.

Windows 98 Solution Center
# End of support for Windows 98 and Windows Me
Effective July 11, 2006, Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Me (and their related components) will transition to a non-supported status. After this date, Microsoft will no longer provide any incident support options or security updates. Microsoft is not offering a custom support agreement for these products.

A friend emailed me with the following suggestion to resolve the problem.










Please click on the link given below:

It would ask you to 'Run' or 'Save' the file.

Click on 'Save', and save the file on the 'Desktop'. Run the saved file which is known as "dial-a-fix"------- Tick all the options in the window ------ Click on Go ------- it will prompt you for the time and date, set it correct and, then click on 'OK.'



After completion of the process (it might take 5 minutes), click on 'Exit' and then, try to update Windows.







Once we have performed the above steps, please access the Windows Update site and see, if the issue is resolved.
It worked. It took about 20 minuets. Tankman 55
