I have Q6700 @ 3.5 Stable
Motherboard XfX 790i Ultra
GeForce 8800 GTX OC
Corsair Memory 2 GB PC3200 DDR RAM,running WindowsXP. it works fine but the problem is when i select windows update to install and it says "Install now" Just as I click the "install now" button I get the following error message "Windows Update has encountered an error and cannot display the requested page." Any recommendations and suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance for your help.
If you choose Run this program from its current location, the installer will automatically install the critical components onto your system. If you choose Save this program to disk, you will be prompted for a directory to download the installer. When download is completed, double-click advpack.exe to install the critical components. Also consider adding http://*.conxion.com and http://*.microsoft.com to your Trusted sites zone under Internet Options > Security in Internet Explorer.
Delete Temporary Internet Files:
- In your Internet Explorer window, open Tools menu, and then select Internet Options.

hi,
Did you try deleting your cookies and checking your active x permissions. Perhaps your firewall is blocking your access to the update site. There are quite a few reasons for not being able to access the updates site.Click Start, and then click Control Panel.Depending on which Control Panel view you use, Classic or Category, do one of the following:
- Click System, and then click the Automatic Updates tab.
- Click Performance and Maintenance, click System, and then click the Automatic Updates tab.
- Click the option that you want. Make sure Automatic Updates is not turned off.
It usually happens when there is a problem with the installation of an update.Open a command prompt.
- regsvr32 /u wuaueng.dll
- del C:\WINDOWS\SOFTWAREDISTRIBUTION
- del C:\WINDOWSUPDATE.log
- Regsvr32 wuaueng.dll
- Net start wuauserv
