• Downloaded and installed Windows updates. Running to find the modified theme and no clear Vista theme.

  Can someone explain what happened? All the available themes are the current non-transparent theme, called 'Modified Theme' and the classic Windows theme.

  It's really strange and really very boring, simply because I didn't ask for this.
  Everything I have done differently was click on the button that says "downloads and installs updates before Shutting Down", in the usual area where is the sleep button.
  Any help would be much appreciated.

  Hello

  Microsoft gives sometimes you updates for the 3rd party hardware: graphics, network cards, etc.

  You should only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft normally does nor those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft relies of the 3rd party hardware Manufactuer to provide.

  But unfortunately, the only way to know which is the update of the problem is to install them one by one, until you find the 'wrong' for your installation.

  You can do a system restore to get back until it has been installed (which is NOT the best way to remove an update) or follow this method:

  'Remove an update'

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/remove-an-update

  When you have found the issue of update of the list of updates which is presented > then right click on the update problem > select Hide update > and it will not be available to you once again

  "How to hide or show an update of Windows Vista"

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/72491-Windows-Update.html

   

  Here's how to chanage update settings, if you think it is necessary to:

  "Understanding Windows Update and Extras in Windows Vista and Windows 7.

  http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/Windows-Vista-updates-and-extras/

  Or the other of these two update settings will give you the chance to see what you want to install through Windows updates;

  Download updates but let me choose whether to install them - if you select this option, Windows will download the updates on your computer, but not install them automatically. If you want to install updates, then you must install them manually. You should only select this option if you have a reason to not install updates automatically. Only advanced users should use this option.

  Check for updates but let me choose whether to download and install them - if you select this option, you'll be alerted when there are new updates available for download and install. You can then choose to download and install the updates that you want. This option should really be reserved for people who know exactly which updates they need, or those who have little access to the Internet.

  But remember you normally only have problems with hardware 3rd party drivers. Other updates are to improve the Performance and security of your system

  See you soon.

• Get the error code 641, cannot install Windows updates.

  Reluctant to do a reinstall of windows.  I had the same problem, find the same useless information on a cure.  I did a reinstall of windows (Vista) and partially by installing the updates of windows I ran into the same problem again, the windows installer does not.  Even from scratch will get not anywhere, leaving you at least your system as it stands leaves can be used instead of a partially updated with no program system.

  I wonder if Apple has this kind of problem?
