I recently installed a new, larger hard boot drive and cloned all the data
from the old drive to the new. When I tried to access Microsoft Windows
Update, I got the following message: Thank you for your interest in
obtaining updates from our site.

This website is designed to work with Microsoft Windows operating systems
only.
To find updates for Microsoft products that are designed for Macintosh
operating systems, please visit http://www.microsoft.com/mac/.

I am running Win 2K sp4 on a dell pc. Might anyone have a suggestion on how
to fix this?

Re: Microsoft Windows Update

Does this happen if you access update from www.microsoft.com?

Re: Microsoft Windows Update

Yes, I still get the same message. Also, I get control panel program errors
for hotplug.dll and hdwwiz.cpl when I try to safely remove a USB flash drive.
Both problems seemed to start at the same time.

RE: Microsoft Windows Update

I tried that, but received the message " 'scf' is not recognized as an
internal or external command, operable program, or batch file." Any other
thoughts?

Re: Microsoft Windows Update

It's SFC /scannow Bilal made a typo.

Re: Microsoft Windows Update

The command is SFC /scannow

for System File Checker.

"Thank you for your interest in Windows Update" message when you connect
to the Windows Update Web site

DHCP problem

DHCP problem


Few days back i installed ISA Server on my windows 2003 server, when i
installed it all services to network was stopped. i started all services but
the DHCP is not running, Even though i uninstalled the ISA server now also it
is not binding to the physical connection.

when i boot the machine it gives a error that one or more service or driver
failed to load.

many times i uninstalled & installed the DHCP service but it is not working.

for the first time when i uninstalled the DHCP and installed it again it
worked and again when i restarted the machine it stopped working.

The main problem for that problem is the DHCP server is not binding to the
Physical connection.

Plz help me out
