Just a question! =&gt; Are you running Vista or Vista SP1? <br> What anti-virus application or security suite (&amp; version) is installed? <br> What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party <br> firewall (if any)? <br> Start a free Windows Update support incident request: <br> <a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="https://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?gprid=6527">[link]</a>

The info on MSDN is correct, Mel. First apply SP3, then install IE7. <br> That way, if anything goes awry with IE7, all you will have to do is to <br> uninstall IE7 from Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel and the <br> system will revert to IE6. <br> Whomever posted that IE7 should be installed first has it *completely

Has SP1 been offered to the machine by Windows Update yet? <br> 0x8007043C ERROR_NOT_SAFEBOOT_SERVICE. <br> Translation: You need a service which is not available in safe mode.

What updates were installed? <br> I very much doubt any update is the cause of this behavior.

If you think you might have need to uninstall IE7 (for whatever reason), <br> don't install it until after SP3 is installed. <br> IEBlog: IE and Windows XP Service Pack 3 <br> <a target="_blank" rel=nofollow href="http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/05/05/ie-and-xpsp3.aspx">[link]</a>

Was Vista SP1 installed on your machine when you bought it, did you install <br> SP1 via Windows Update, or did you install SP1 manually? <br> Did you opt to be offered beta updates? <br> If you're currently running Silverlight v1.0, I'd stick with it IIWY. <br> And I would not rely on MU for Windows Live updates.
