Re: "Windows update service not running" - Vista


[re: wingco1] [link to this post] 		 
luckily for Vista and 7 MS provide some good tools to sort these problems out if it persists. Try SFC in the meantime anyhow.

Don't you need the Windows installation disc handy if running SFC.EXE /SCANNOW?

The OP installed the OS on the new drive from an image though - that could be causing the problem...

In XP sometimes, Vista and above usually you don't need the DVD, unless your installation is really screwed.

Cheers smile

Yes I have needed the disc a few times with XP machines, but I've never used Vista and with Win7 scannow has never been required.
