I downloaded an XP update and at the middle of downloading, an error message appeared. The error code was 0X800C0005. I cannot continue to download anything after that from the MS site without getting this error code. I searched the web for solution and followed it to the letter. Then to my chagrin, it affected my ability to access secure sites, like paypal and my own bank! I cannot access even my own hotmail account! I tried to follow everything that MS suggested but to no avail, all the suggestion didn’t make my settings different or even improved to a point that I can surf to secure sites. I tried to do a fresh XP install hoping to erase IE or refresh it, but another blue screen of death appeared and a blurb of error code related to the first error code appeared. I did not manage to install XP at that point because it hangs and it won’t allow me to proceed.
I tried to rewrite all the dll library files and edit the registry based on MS suggestions, still no solution. I can access any site as long as it is not secure.
I have refreshed my SSL certificates and other IE functions related to it but still nothing worked. I have a dsl connection and I am not networked. It is a PC CAD workstation with an AMD opteron 150 raid array 1 system on an ASUS SK8V motherboard.
I have Norton Anti-Virus that I disabled per MS because it can affect it. I can’t even uninstall NAV because it asks for an administrator permission. I was flabbergasted because this is a personal PC and I am the only one using it.
