Windows 7 updates
I just installed a clean copy of Windows on a IBM Thinkpad and for some reason Windows Update never connects. I click find updates and it just sits there searching indefinitely. It has solid internet connection. I can view youtube and surf without issue but it never finds updates. is it a problem with the Microsoft servers or a problem with the laptop. I've never seen this before.

How long are you letting it check? I've seen it take an hour or so. Probably a couple hundred updates available.

you may have better luck if you update via ethernet than wireless. 7 might not recognize your connection until it is updated.

I had it going for around 30 minutes. I've never seen it take that long before. I'll just open it up today and let it run.

Happened to me on a clean install I just did the other day. I left it for a couple hours and nothing happened.

I eventually gave up on it.

I think that there are times when the Microsoft server is unresponsive. I'll bet that if you try at a different time of the day, you'll get a connection.

does anyone happen to know what the name of the initial update file is? maybe I could download that manually and it would resolve this. The one thing I know about MS and updates on a clean install is that the first time you run it there is only one update. Once you reboot with that update it then goes out and gets the other 20-30

How are you accessing it? Are you going to Windows site or through the Control Panel?

I'm going to download a couple manually and see of getting a couple installed might trigger something.

Did you fresh install base win7, or win7 SP1. If its base win7, you will need to manually download and install service pack 1 before you can automatically get updates.

If you have already got sp1, try this

I have recently fixed multiple PCs with windows update problems and it has had to do with the windows activation or windows update tool itself.
