Re: Error Code 80070103 on Vista Home Premium

As one who a) DOES generally have a clue, and b) DOES allow Windows Vista to
auto-update my computer, can I refer you to a post which I found helpful:
search for "Update Error 80070103 Synaptics PS/2 Port Touch". That outlines
the suggested steps for getting rid of this issue.

Can I suggest that the whole idea behind auto-updates is aimed at people who
DO NOT have a clue, therefore if updating drivers causes errors, Microsoft
should not be delivering them via this medium, and you shouldn't be being
rude to people who are performing a task that any normal IT professional
should have expected MS to test thoroughly!!

Re: Error Code 80070103 on Vista Home Premium

Re: Error Code 80070103 on Vista Home Premium

It's been suggested that MS provide a *notice* of when an updated driver
is available and that it should link *directly* to the 3rd party vendor.
Then said vendor takes the blame for issues caused by said update
instead of MS.
The *only* reason MS should directly distribute 3rd party driver updates
is when a *Critical security vulnerability* exisits.
Otherwise, just provide a notice and direct URL.
'nuff said <w>
