My windows (windows vista home premium)can't check for updates. it's showing error code 80244019. plz help me find solution for the same. thank you
Press Win+R, type 'services.msc' and press Enter. Respond to the UAC prompt. Check that Background Intelligent Transfer Service is started and its startup type is 'Automatic.' (It can also be Automatic (Delayed Start).) If it is not started, right-click on it and select Start. Scroll down to Windows Update to make sure that it is started and it startup type is 'Automatic' or 'Automatic (Delayed Start).' If it is not started, right-click on it and select Start. If you had to start either service, try to run Windows Update again by clicking on Start -> All Programs -> Windows Update.
In that case, you may need to change your firewall settings to allow anonymous access to all of these sites:http://download.windowsupdate.com
https://*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://*.windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://update.microsoft.com
http://*.windowsupdate.com
http://download.microsoft.com
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
http://ntservicepack.microsoft.com
http://wustat.windows.com
I've never seen this requirement in Vista, but I've had to use it myself when using XP.
Download and install this: http://download.windowsupdate.com/window... for an x86 machine or this: http://download.windowsupdate.com/window... for a x64 machine. It is the latest agent for Microsofts update sites. Then try it again to see if we got anywhere.

can not update windows on vista home premium and can not pull up microsoft pages to get the fix. Norton doesn't recognize any viruses. Code 80244019
