ASPIRE 8920G WIN VISTA UPDATING ERROR 8024A000

VIPERJFB

MY ISSUE IS AFTER REPLACING TWO DEFECTIVE HARD DRIVES 1-WD 320 & 1SEAGATE 500 WITH A NEW WD BLACK 750 AND AFTER USING THE ACER RECOVERY SOFTWARE I CAN'T UPDATE WINDOWS.  I GET AN ERROR MESSEGE WHEN TRYING TO UPDATE, THE ERROR MESSAGE IS 8024A000  THERE ARE A FEW OTHER PROBLEMS I THINK ALL PERTAIN TO THE SAME PROBLEM.  ONE IS THAT I CAN'T USE MICROSOFT WEBSITES VERY WELL, IT TELLS ME TO DOWNLOAD IE8 WHICH IS NOT FOR WIN VISTA & I CAN'T INSTALL IE9. ALSO SOME OF MICROSOFT WEBSITES WILL NOT LET ME ON, I GET AN ERROR MESSAGE WHICH IS ( OPERATION ABORTED )  FYI - I HAVE BUILT AND WORKED ON COMPUTERS ALL MY LIFE AND NEVER HAD AN ISSUE LIKE THIS.  I HAVE USED MY RECOVERY SOFTWARE MANY TIMES ON THE OTHER TWO HARD DRIVES WITH NO ISSUES UNTIL THEY DIED. ANY HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL & APPRECIATED
