Our server crashed and while our IT dept is working to restore it, I have two Western Digital USB MyBook Backup Drives that have backups created with Win 2003 Backup/Restore Utility. I connected the WD HDs to a PC running Win7 and although the OS sees the USB WD drive, when I click on it, it returns an ACCESS DENIED and will not let me see any data. How do I get at the backups on these drives?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Services pack 1 keeps failing to install on the second stage. I have tried to install it about 8 or 9 times now but still the same. It just completes the first stage then fails.
Please can you advise me what I need to done to get this to install?
Kind regards

Installed windows 7 home addition but service pack 1 did not install. After trying to update Explorer to Explorer 11 I was told that I did not have service pack 1, My computer system properties says that it is not installed. But when I went to the Microsoft Website and did as I was told to install it using windows update, It shows up as being installed by windows update but it is not really installed or it should show up in Systems properties, and Explorer 11 should install.
Should I wipe the Hard drive and do a re install? Something is not right.

Installed all of 2007 updates, installed 2008 updates up to March, then 2008 march updates, ( I do remember back in 2008 these updates causing a crash on restart, and the single update offered in April correcting it) It Crashed/ blue screen, start windows normally. Installed the single update listed for April, installed it, Installed updates by the years, except the frameworks updates I installed them separately. Installed all important/recommended updates, last of them dated April 2010. Then Installed important update; Microsoft visual C++ 2005 SP1. Still no SP1 listed. Only one more update listed as Important remaining; Malicious removal tool Oct 2015. Installed it and then SP1 was listed; Why would windows update list SP1 1.9mb dated 3/5/2015? Tried installing it, as usual, it claimed success after 5 seconds past with no restart, but did not install. After that updates listed KB955430, installed. then updates listed SP1 1.9mb 3/5/2015 again and kept offering it over and over. (note; KB955430, KB987237, KB949939 all installed VIA updates, none of them can be uninstalled.)
Can Vaguely remember if I had installed IE8 before SP1 was offered back then, or if there was a driver that needed updating before SP1 installed back in 2008. No devices need updating in device manager. I know that IE8 was offered through updates, but not this time. I went ahead and manually installed IE8, because the AMD auto detect tool would not work with IE7, does not work with IE8 either.
I am stuck at this time and trying to figure out if I can solve this problem, and install SP1 VIA updates, rather than through Windows Download Center.
Ran the Windows update reset tool 50202 in normal mode, ran the readiness tool 947821, restarted into clean boot, still only list SP1 1.9mb
Ran the Windows update reset tool 50202 in aggressive mode, ran the readiness tool 947821, restarted into clean boot, still only list SP1 1.9mb.
Any help would greatly be appreciated!
Thank you.

We need internet explorer 11 32 bit version running under Windows 2008R2, which is a 64 bit based OS. This is because all or thin client based applications running under the browser on the local IIS Web server, are designed for the IE 32 bit browser only.
The only IE11 option available to download from Microsoft's site for Windows 2008R2 seems to be only 64-bit based.
I have read some posts that disabling the EPM option will enable 32 bit Tabs to work on IE11 64-bit browser, but then I've read contradicting information that EPM should be enabled for this, so this is not clear.
However, we would rather install a true 32-bit IE11 version instead, all the way 32-bit, not only for the tabs, to ensure our 32 bit browser based thin client apps will work well.
Where may I download an installer for IE11 32-bit for Windows 2008 R2?
My computer crashed, so had hard drive reformated and re-loading Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit. Doing all the updates via Windows Update, I get to Service Pack 1. It installs successfully, but won't move onto Service pack 2. I have like 10 supposed successful installations of Service Pack 1. I even downloaded SP2 and of course it won't install because it says I have to install SP1 first. Read documentation, searched forums and didn't find an answer to this problem. I even downloaded "Mr Fixit" and this didn't help.
I'm somewhat technical, but not a pro. Can's figure this out. Can someone help or point me in the right direction? Thanks.
My Win 7 PC says it cannot connect to "BlahBlah" (my home network). And when I try to connect to the internet using an open network - it still can't connect to the internet (although my Win 10 laptop can use this same open network and access the internet). I have tried everything I could find - like ipconfig flush, reset v4 and v6, reset winsock, etc. - including fixes that I downloaded from Microsoft and another site for a winsock fix. I have reset the modem, router, etc. and I can't even open my router by typing that IP address into the browser bar. Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks,

When I try and run Fixit it starts then says Powershell has failed.
Any ideas as to what I can do??
Belatedly getting around to tyring to install Vista SP2 and the install fails.
I looked at the SP2 update - KB948465. The tooltip when I hover over it says: File version 6.0.6002.18005, created 3/31/2011 at 10:54pm. Size is 348MB.
I looked at the error log file CBS.log. Near the end, where it failed, it seemed that it was looking for a version of the SP2 update
with the version number 6.0.0.18005.
Could this be failing because the Update Installer is looking for a different version number (eg. 6.0.0 .... ) that the actual KB update
version number of 6.0.6002 .... ???
I have tried running the System Update Readiness Tool for Vista - KB947821, but that stalled out about 3/4 of the way through and never completed; I had to finally reboot the system.
Any thoughts would be appreciated. Unfortunately my tax prep software requires IE 8 or above. I have IE 7. IE 8 or 9 will not
install on VISTA without SP2 being installed. SP2 will not install. Checkmate ......
I'm running Vista Business x86.
I've tried installing SP1 both from Windows Update and from the stand-alone installer. Both times it goes through to 100% on Stage 3 before stating that the SP couldn't be installed and backing out. The error message wasn't terribly helpful.
I've tried disabling my AV (ESET Smart Security) and other running software. No difference.
How do I start to trouble shoot this?
and that program tells me that all is in order. Additionally, I have verified that I have a fully updated BIOS.
