I have a friend who has a Toshiba Satellite A205-S5880 laptop running 32 bit WIN7. He brought it to me because he noticed that it hasn't installed any updates in quite some time. So I ran Windows Update, it said that the windows update service wasn't started, if you open up service.msc, it says it's started. So, I went to Microsoft's support site and tried everything I could find, no luck. I updated drivers, ran their fixits, nothing worked. The last person I talked to said the only option left was to do a fresh install, which is not an option at this time. So, if I can't fix it, all I want to do is get all the major security updates on it somehow. Is there a way to do that?
