Jode · 04-14-2004, 04:32 PM

Nilk · 04-14-2004, 06:58 PM

3 of the updates, received a, "This program has not passed Microsoft Quality Testing, and will not be installed"
erm, gryph? is there anything I can do about this?

PrincessAmy · 04-14-2004, 08:42 PM

Thanks...I would have never known.

Ghryphen · 04-15-2004, 07:34 AM

Nilk, is that Driver updates? I usually don't install all of those, just select few. The Critical Updates were the important ones released. Although I would hope that anything on Windows Update would be MS tested

Nilk · 04-15-2004, 08:17 AM

whelp the driver updates, are never MS tested, but I am talking about 3 of the 5 critical updates, they would not apply, since they said they were not MS tested. any clues?

Ghryphen · 04-15-2004, 08:21 AM

That is really weird, I have no idea why it would do that.

Try looking here http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/troubleshoot/

There is a

When installing an update you receive the following message: "Software you are installing has not passed Windows Logo testing"

bah! liked I'd trust MS, after their own software has not passed this mythical Windows Logo testing, that I'd check their troubleshooting section!
ah well looking....

Gryph your literacy, never ceases to amaze me

okay, next job, goto www.asus.com and find out why the BIOS 1010 for an Asus a7n8x-e deluxe rev2, gives me BSoD when I boot

lol sheesh fine, I'll go look for myself, lol

Ghryphen · 04-16-2004, 11:42 AM

Well, if there isn't a specific reason why you want the new version, I wouldn't update the bios. Windows is picky about mobo changes. If you change your mobo and the drivers don't support the changes you will bsod. Might see about updating your mobo drivers first.

Nilk · 04-16-2004, 10:11 PM

those are up to date, almost wondering if the drivers are TOO new? see when I boot, from my older drive, that has a closer to fresh install on it, it runs fine, I don get it, and have posted it with Asus, on the troubleshooting section
(yup did check before I posted it, found answers to prblems I had with SATA initially, lol too bad it took them too long to post that answer! i had to bang head agaisnt desk, to figure that out...hmmm maybe it is sata drivers...)
see I have some IDE/RAID controller drivers, in the newer drivers pack, THAT windows will NOT let install, and I've even tried going in on safe mode, but it still tells me I don't have access, even if I log in under my admin account, very odd.
