<p class=MsoNormal>After installing ArcGIS 9.3 on several Win 7 computers I
noticed that Windows Update was not working. It would go to the Update site and
sit on downloading updates forever and never make any progress. Further
investigation in the Event Viewer and Services Management showed an error Error
1450: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service. I
was able to find two posts on the web addressing this issue and suggesting a
fix. The basic fix is to do the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>1) Run Regedit as an Administrator and set the
Registry Size Limit to "unlimited": <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Key: RegistrySizeLimit <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Type: REG_DWORD <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Value: 0xffffff (4294967295) - <i>You need to set the
value to decimal and copy and paste the number value here into the registry
value</i><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>2) Reboot <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>3) As a Administrator open a Command Prompt and run
"SFC /SCANNOW". The command should complete successfully and if any
errors were found, they should be corrected. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This has fixed the problem on all our machines so far. Do be
very careful when editing your registry. You can really muck things up
beyond repair if you do not know what you are doing. Here are links to the
Articles I found with the solution from above.<o:p></o:p></p>
