Windows 7 update error

(1/3) > >>

parkd1:
When I ran Windows 7 update I get an error. The error is 8024402c. Trying to find a fix for this. If their is anything else you need Just ask. Thanks for the help.

Shane:
Did you try my Windows repair tool yet on it?

parkd1:
That was the first thing I tried.

Shane:
I remember this error. 8024402c means it had trouble talking to the windows update servers. ANd I have always found it to be DNS related.

My fix is to have the system use the google dns servers 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4

This bug is on my own ISP. When I used their DNS every single machine in my house and office would fail with this error. As soon as I changed dns servers they all worked. I tried to let my ISP know but they just ignored me lol

SO try the dns trick and see how it does :wink:

That worked. Do not know why it stopped working. Maybe you could add this fix to your program. Thanks a lot. You rock.
