Go to your internet explorer options and make sure you have the language set to english. In some weird cases I have seen an error like this and checking the language would find nothing was set by default.

Run SFC /SCANNOW as well incase the problem was in a windows protected file (You will need the 2000 CD).<br />
<br />
Other than that try resetting the Internet Explorer Defaults.

Hi,<br />
I just loaded Win2000 Pro and some other software.<br />
Then I attempted Windows Update. As soon as I press &quot;scan for updates&quot;, I get a &quot;windows update error&quot; - Send error number to Microsoft (0x80072F05).<br />
I'm logged on as Administrator.<br />
Oh, after I installed Win2000 Pro, I had to do a chkdsk and it found a bad file. Hopefully it's not related.<br />
Any ideas?<br />
Thanks

Please help with error at &quot;Windows Update&quot;

Windows 2000 is an operating system for use on both client and server computers. It is the successor to Windows NT 4.0, and is the last version of Microsoft Windows to display the "Windows NT" designation. Four editions of Windows 2000 were released (Professional, Server, Advanced Server, and Datacenter Server) that shared a core set of features, including many system utilities such as the Microsoft Management Console. All versions of the operating system support NTFS 3.0, Encrypting File System, as well as basic and dynamic disk storage. The Windows 2000 Server family includes support for Active Directory services, Distributed File System and fault-redundant storage volumes.
