I have a new PC with WinXP Pro w/SP1. I am trying to
access the Windows Update page. After IE 6.0 loads, I get
the "Checking for the latest version of the Windows Update
Software." After a second that screen goes away and I get
the following error "Windows update has encountered an
error and cannot display the requested page. Network
problems are preventing connection to the Windows Update
servers. Please try again later." I can succesfully
connect to the Windows Update on another computer at the
same time. I can also get to other web sites on the
problem PC (including office update as I installed some
office patches). Anyone have any suggestions?
 
i am not sure but i guess you are not using a geunie copy of XP and it might
be the reson , because i heard that MSFT has blocked updates to XP with
certain Keys and when you try updating with those Copies you will get the
same ERROR .see if your product key has RHQQZ if it does then i bet its a
pirated one
