Hi folks, this is my first post on this fine forum.
I've just done a fresh install of Windows 7 Ultimate x86 on my media box, it has validated without issue. I'm not sure if KB971033 is installed, but WU reckons my machine is fully patched. I'm not sure what license this is, it came with the machine when I purchased it 2nd hand. I was given the ISO file on the machine, (it was in OOBE on first power up, unsure if it was sysprepped) the sticker doesn't have any manufacturer on it, but it is genuine as far as I know. It's an older Lenovo machine. The Windows installer appears to be stock, without any branding. No OS version choice though, the WIM appears to have just this option on it. There doesn't appear to be any Lenovo software on either the ISO or the WIM once deployed (I know this as I used 'NT6 Fast Installer' to deploy the image to the disk, Google it
)
I've checked and rebooted several times and done the usual repair jobs to WU to get it to rebuild the list of updates, I've even gone to the trouble of using PortUp to scan outside of WU. That comes back empty with no sign of KB3035583.
KB971033 should be well known as it has been a bone of contention for a while now. If not, the letters WGA/WAT should send a shiver down your spine if you've ever had to deal with it.
KB3035583 is the Windows 10 updater.
I'm running Home Premium x64 on both my main machine, my laptop and the girlfriends laptop, the laptops are OEM (HP). KB3035583 has appeared on all three without issue.
I've managed to download the x86 KB3035583 MSU and when I run it, it tells me this isn't applicable for this machine. I've tried the DISM route, but that gives me an error 50.
Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?
I apologise for the long post, and I'm aware that may put some off reading it, but I quite often put as much relevant information and comparative knowledge as possible into the OP.
Thank you in advance for any light you can throw my way on this. May your torches be bright!
