pianotech Posted September 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2013 I'm sorry it has taken me so long to get back to this forum. I don't know how to make a clearer picture. I took a screenshot and turned it into a jpeg and then sent it in the Wise PC 1stAid post. The error code in 80040154. When I try to update windows through windows update, I get the meeage that Windows could not search for new updates. Down underneath the code, it says Windows Update encountered an unknown error. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, pianotech Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
