Good morning,<br />
<br />
My Windows Vista computer crashed recently. Using the the reinstall CD that came with the system I performed a fresh version install. Using Microsoft Update I tried to update all the service packs ect. After a few minutes the system stopped searching for updates and came back with a message that says &quot;Windows could not search for updates (highlighted in red) Code: 80072EE2&quot;. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
The fresh version I installed is Windows Vista Business SP1.<br />
<br />
Thanks for your help.
