I was trying to run a maintenance update for my office printer and file server. I can’t see anyone touching the server since I join the company. The server run on Windows 2000 and I believe the server is older than the OS itself, because it still have the ISA slot :whooa: .

I ran the windows update via web and it happen to display the 0xC8000711 error. I got stump and thinking to re-install the server. Not that fast, I have to search the fix to keep challenging myself .

After few minutes of research, it seem that to run an update, a windows need these two services started;
-Background Intelligent Transfer Service
-Event Log

Sound stupid, but that what really happend. The server Event Log service was stopped. I start the service and run update like a charm.. :clap: :clap:

This should help
