Windows Update error code 8024200d possiable fix.
I tried to install Windows Vista sp1 for a full week. I even went online with
tech support to try to fix the problem. I finally had to stop online support
due to personal business. I then checked with my manufacture to see if they
had any possiable problems. I was directed to run Memory Diagnostic Tool,
where I was told I had a memory problem. I was susposed to have 1 GB of
memory. I purchased a 1 GB stick of memory, removed the two sticks of memory
that I had, then installed the 1 GB memory in the first slot, an original 500
MB of memory in the second, and the last 500 MB in the third slot, giving me
2 GB of ram. I have had no problems with Windows Vista since. The bottom line
I believe you need at least 1.5 GB of memory to run Vista. Check your memory
and see how that works for you.
RE: Windows Update error code 8024200d possiable fix.
I am running Vista 64bit on a 4GB DDRII system. When I re-installed my vista
64 and ran windows update for SP1, yet the result I get is code 8024200d!!!
Therefore, I believe it is not related to memory for certain cases!!!
I am still having this problem when updating Vista SP 1 from windows
update... can someone provide a denifite solution for this type of problem?
System:
Vista Ultimate 64bit
Intel Core2 6600
4GB DDR II

Re: Windows Update error code 8024200d possiable fix.
Your post is unclear as to whether:
1) You're trying to install SP1 via Windows Update
2) You're trying to update the system after applying SP1
If it's the former, suggest you download the entire SP1 package:
Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Five Language Standalone for x64-based
Systems (KB936330)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en
Then read this prior to installing it:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/936330
** Skip Step 2 as all required pre-installation updates are included in
SP1 **
If SP1 still fails to install:
