    If you insist on sticking with this dinosaur, here is the answer:

    You need to install ALL of the available updates! You start with the oldest update, then reboot the computer, then install the next available (oldest) update, etc. DON'T SKIP! VISTA never used accumulated updates (to my knowledge), so you need to re-install every last one of them, one at a time, rebooting the computer between updates.

    Vista ceases to be secure (no more Microsoft critical updates) in April 2017. So I suggest you install Windows 10 instead.
