An internal error occured while installing the service pack code:0x800738B3
I am having trouble with installing Service Pack 1 for Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit. When I try to install it, I get a : "An internal error occured while installing the service pack" with an error code of 0x800736B3.. anyone help me!!
Support for Vista Gold (no Service Packs) ended on Tuesday, 13 April 2010 so you're missing at least 15 months' worth of critical security updates (and probably more)!
Chances are you're seeing the effects of a longstanding hijackware infection, most likely compounded by a W32/Alureon-variant rootkit infection. See...
Note: Your computer should not be connected to the internet or any local networks (i.e., other computers) in its current state. All of your personal data (e.g., online banking & credit-card passwords) should be considered at-risk, if not already
compromised.
Wish I'd had better news for you. Good luck!
PS: Support for Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) ended on Tuesday, 12 July 2011 so you'll need to get that installed, too, ASAP!
