Wonder what's up.

http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
yup, fine here too..
seems fine here too mate
I think you just broke the interweb in Alyesbury :P
This is scary :(
I cant get either of my PC's to Update.....:eek:
I cant work out how to take a screen shot for ya to see....tried print Screen and then saved it as a NT Clp file and then a 3.1 Clp file but I only have Paint Shop pro to convert it with and it says bad DIb file or some old pants like that.
Getting mad now.....been at this for hours :(
any chance that my ISP shows up as a bad show to Microsoft.
I have updated my mates PC on my Broad bean on Sunday, but as with all NTL cable stuff I had to get his PC a seperate kind of account thingy......with my PID number etc. but it was ok. sameith this one. surely my ip address isnt the problem?
Must be coincidence...have had 3 different acounts on it before.
How about print screen and then paste into Paint Shop Pro?Quote:

If you're getting a error from the windows update site itself try checking your time and date. If it's miles out the update process fails
time and date is fine..but thanks matey..good thought :)
update......halfway through 3dmark 2001 SE for the first time, it crashed back to Windows desktop :grr: and there was the poxy "Your Updates are ready to download now" message.
If I ever meet Bill Gates, I'm gonna shake him by the .....
THROAT
;)
Cheers dudes..dunno which one of you waved a magic wand, but it worked ;)
Zak do you use broadband? if so it could be something funny going on there- I just had the same problem, it wouldn't load up for AGES!! then it came back saying something like 'you version of windows is cr*p'...or similar...
head on over to google, do a search for 'DRTCP' and download the latest version, install it and enter your MTU number...it could be different from mine but you could try entering 1458
-if it doesn't work get hold of your service provider...hope that helps, it fixed me up nicely...
thats get hold of provider for MTU...
thanks Shiato.....top bloke :)

The deafening sound of silence.......
Zakky-poos....have you been making illegal copies of software again? ;) :D
nah..its OK.....
its all legit versions.....BUT.....what scared me was the IP address on my PC.
Cos I use it update other peoples PC's.....relog on to Broadbandfor their PC, update, then plugmine back in.
Wondered if Bill was getting arsey about me having 3 different PC's updated on on IP address in under a week.
Seems OK now tho :)
That shuoldn't be the case - eg. one of my clients has 30 machines behind one firewall , so it see's plenty of windows update Activity from their IP :)
