Inertia Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 So, to clarify , everyone who doesnt have a warezed version of XP is fine, and everyone with illegitimate versions have this problem ? Mine is legitimate, i might be installing IE7 , ive been using vista for a few days and just come back to XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcdmail Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 No I don't think so. As far as I understand, WU update doesn't work in IE7 no matter what version of XP. You have two options install IE7 in standalone mode or IE6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, as in my case with a legal copy of XP, WUv6 or MicrosoftUpdatev6 does not work correctly. As also reported on the various IE MSDN blogs, this is also the case for the 'vast majority of users of IE7 Beta 1' this includes those who have managed subscriptions to MSDN D/L area...

JiveMasterT Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 you know, all they gotta do is change the browser check string and it should work... this is so retarted that this wasnt fixed immediately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xacci Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 IE7 does support windows update... BUT only version 6.2 of Windows Update. Yes I am a beta tester, and sorry I can't or won't provide a leak... Answer? If you have IE7 Beta and you would like to use the windows update, then you will just have to wait a bit but be assured, they dance nicely together and make a wonderful pair. :no: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devere Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Works fine as of last night - I see now that it does office update at the same time in one screen instead having to go elsewhere and do a second scan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psneddon Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 I had the same problem - turns out it was caused by the Windows Update service not being started on my PC. I sent into the MMC console and started the service and everything worked fine. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
