Why cant i install windows updates-it shows error0x80040609

Sounds like you may have installed windows alongside of linux after linux had been installed. This is not usually advised. If this is the case your most likely seeing windows boot loader instead of grub. If you did in fact fully replace with windows then the update may have two installations of windows on it. Either way I would recommend backing up data on hard drive (use a live cd to view data) and format hard drive and re-install Windows and if you had/want linux as well, install that after windows. If you can give me a little more info I can help you more.

You don't need any driver software, if your pc has windows xp sp2 or later and Windows Media Player 11.
If you have problem with your device follow this steps:
1. Connect the player to the computer.
2. From the computer, select start - Control Panel - Performance and Maintenance - System. "System Properties" is displayed.
3. Select Hardware tab, and open Device manager.
4. Open Universal Serial Bus controllers, and select USB Mass Storage Device or WALKMAN NWZ-XXXXX.
5. Select Action - Update Driver ... from the menu bar. "Welcome to the Hardware Update Wizard" is displayed.
6. A dialog on Windows Update connection will be displayed. Select No, not this time., followed by Next.
7. Select Install from a list or specific location [Advanced], followed by Next for the hardware install method.
8. Select Don't search. I will choose the driver to install., followed by Next for the search and install option.
9. Check Show compatible hardware, and then select MTP Device* in the model list, followed by Next. The device driver is installed.
10. "Completing the Hardware Update Wizard" message is displayed, and confirm "MTP Device" message. Click Finish.

I hope I could help you.
Thanks.

The copy of your windows 7 seems to be a pirated one. try buying a genuine copy of Windows 7 and install it.

Because you are trying to install the wrong driver.
Go do windows update and windows will install the correct driver for you, this will work on windows xp, vista and windows 7 only, you did no state your OS.
Hope this helps

Keep going back until you get all updates installed, then try again.

if this is a failed microsoft update,write down the number or title,check add remove programs with the show updates box checked,if you see it installed then uninstall it an then check for new updates to see if it works,otherwise,go to microsoft update,view update history ,look for failed update ,click on it and follow the help links,usually end up at another update that needs to be installed first,just disableing microsoft updates,and switching back to windows update fixes update problems,and vice-versa

Do what you need most. You have to choose yourself whether you require DSL200 or SP3. I can only tell you how to remove SP3 from your PC. Goto start button control panel, add remove programs, Change or remove programes and on top select show updates check box in the list below you will fine windows update Windows XP service pack 3 just click on remove. Further, once you are done with installing your DSL you can once more try installing service pack 3 and see wether both work in harmony or not.

Try unpluging memory DIMM's (one by one)
