  Do you have other accounts of users on this PC?  If you install this update from the main account?

  You should get the number of the update of the updated history list and then download the file here: Microsoft downloads.
  If sure that nothing else is running, and then install the update manually.  Give it a try and let us know the results.

• Stop windows update to install Nvidia driver version 52.16

  Hello

  Recently, I upgraded the PC of my father to WinXP SP3. It is an old DELL Dimension of 11 years. After installation there is a nagging question that won't stop.

  Windows Update keeps trying to install the following:

  MICROSOFT VIDEO NVIDIA GEFORCE 4 MX 420

  NVIDIA driver version 52.16

  This update is not necessary for the monitor to run.

  So far, my difficulty was to start in safe mode and back the driver.

  Windows Update repeatedly installed this driver. I have

  detailed instructions on how to block this specific update to settle here.

  Thank you

  Dwayne Boyd

  To hide an update in Windows XP, just go to the Windows Update site and uncheck the update and click on the + sign next to it. At the bottom of the explanation expanded the update the checkbox to hide this update become active and can be selected, thus masking the update.

  Then, you need to remove the update from the temporary folder:

  Stop the automatic updates service

  Click Start, choose run.
  In the run box, type services.msc.
  Click OK.
  Right-click the automatic updates service.
  Click on stop.
  Stopping the service will take a moment.

  Delete the content of the download folder
  Click Start. Choose run.
  In the run box, type %windir%\SoftwareDistribution
  Click OK.
  Open the download folder.
  Delete all the contents of the download folder.
  Close the window.

  Start the automatic updates service
  Click Start. Choose run.
  In the run box, type services.msc.
  Click OK.
  Right-click the automatic updates service.
  Click Start.
  Starting the service will take a moment.

  By removing the contents of the download folder - you have removed all downloaded
  updates.

  Now, the next step would be to configure Windows Update in order to warn only rather than automatically download and install updates. In this way, you stay in control.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/306525

  Click Start, click run, type sysdm.cpl, and then press ENTER.

  Click the automatic updates tab, and then click to select an Notify me but don't automatically download or install

  I hope this helps.

• How to control the Windows updates are installed on the Windows Surface of RT

  I recently had to perform a refresh to solve the problem with desktop on the desktop icons that appear as spaces. After the update, I had to reinstall the update for Office 2013. When I went to Windows Update to do this, I found it with a group of 9 other updates, these 9 were all marked as ready for download and installation, Office 2013 update is not checked. I disabled the office 2013 update and not the other 9 updates, thinking that I could make those after I had Office installed upgrading so I would like to know if my taskbar icon problem has been resolved. At the bottom of the screen even when the Office update was the only update checked I chose to install updates. The Surface actually installed all updates, not only the update of Office.

  Is there a way to control which Windows updates are installed in fact at some point? Unchecking them made no difference.
