KB2884256 update fails, Dexcom driver install fails

<< < (7/10) > >>

Boggin:
I wonder if going to the computer support site if OEM build or the motherboard support site if custom build and downloading the Intel Chipset drivers before the repair install would help ?

sptilton:
Thanks for the info.  I have previously tried a repair from the installation CD with no effect. But the CD is pre SP2.  If I understand the info in the link it seems this will not work. The link says:

"If you have an Anytime Upgrade Vista installation DVD, then you will not be able to do this."

"IF YOU HAVE THE VISTA SP2 INSTALLED:
This will not work if you have SP1 and SP2 installed unless your
Vista installation DVD includes SP2."

Unfortunately my disc is an "Anytime Upgrade" and does not include SP2. 

I tried doing repairs to SP2 but the computer can not find the files (see attachment).

I found this link on "How to Create Free Windows Vista SP2 Recovery Disk"
( http://www.ehow.com/how_8645148_create-vista-sp2-recovery-disk.html )
Does this seem feasible?

Thanks

I updated the Intel DG31PR chipset driver from version 8.4.0.1016 to the latest version 9.1.2.1008 on 10/12/14 to try to fix this problem. It did not help.

It was just a thought that may have saved you from the repair install.

That link for the Recovery disk would only get you a disk that would boot you into the F8 options.

From a Google you would need to create a Vista ISO boot disk and then Slipstream SP2 into it and this is what I've found for those -

This is one from clicking on a sub link in that article which includes how to make a bootable disk from those files. http://www.mydigitallife.info/windows-vista-free-direct-download-link/

This article may also help if you want to go for the Vista SP1 ISO http://www.heidoc.net/joomla/technology-science/microsoft/57-windows-vista-direct-download-links

Hope these help but if you have any problems I'm sure Shane will be able to guide you.

Don't forget that you will need your generic product key as the sticker key doesn't always work and which Belarc Advisor will display for you. http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

Before trying to create the ISO boot disk, is replacing the INFCACHE.1 file as described at http://www.instant-registry-fixes.org/resolve-windows-vista-usb-detection-issues/  worth a try.
Is this fix relevant?
