  Original title: HP Pavilion Elite HPE210

  I have reinstalled Windows 7 on this desktop computer. Do I need to install the important updates or recommended?  I g6 Pavilion laptop which I reinstalled windows 7 same question but I don't update windows drivers. Who updates the drivers then?

  Yes, of course, you must do all the Important Windows updates to bring your computer up-to-date and secure.  In fact, most of these updates are patches to fix security vulnerabilities.

  Optional updates are another matter.  In fact, most of them is not good for your computer.  You need a source very knowledgeable information to guide you to choose those.

  Regarding the drivers,.

  Almost without exception, your ONLY source of drivers for your computer are on the HP support web site.  Windows Update will sometimes offer driver updates that mostly (but not always) are OK, but you should prefer the HP as your source.

  Don't get caught up in a frenzy more updates driver.  In practice, they rarely need to be looked at and then only if there is a specific problem to solve.

  NEVER, use sites to update driver on the internet.  They are virtually all the two sources of infection and/or updates bad and bad.

• Why do I need to install the SP63801 update?

  HP Pavilion dv7, Windows 7, 64-bit, which is about a month.

  Someone can explain to me in layman's term what is this update and why do I need the WinFlash utility updated to locally Flash the system BIOS (ROM)? (I don't even know what it means, I just copied what is in the box to support assistant)  I read some other info online that suggests if I'm not having problems of computer it is perhaps not necessary to install the update.

  I'm suspicious because I recently installed an update of the audio driver from the HP website, that completely invalidates my computer and I had to do a system restore.

  Hello

  Suppliers of hardware and software ALWAYS release fixes, patches, updates... to correct, improve their products. But in the COMPUTER environment, fix a bug can introduce another bug and users must believe the sellers because they release the source/code. In this case, the utility can improve the process, as it clearly says:

  Fix/development

  -Takes in charge the functionality of Intel iRST on systems with 16 MB of system memory

  Source: http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?cc=us&LC=en&softwareitem=ob-124651-1

  No SP63801 your machine will not be able to have the Intel iRST feature.

• Can't see the optional updates! : says there are 8, click, and where they appear to select to install, they are not there...

  ... It happens as well with important updates, but if I just click install selected updates it will install only important...

  Now, maybe I don't want to install these optional updates, but it bothers a little of me that I can't see them, or select them or anything :-/ Someone knows how to fix this?

  Thank you!

  Hi Pidanha,

  1. were you able to select and install the optional updates before with no problems?

  2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

• installed an optional update for webcam now I can't uninstall the optional update

  I installed an optional update for a live! Cam optia pro webcam now camera is not working and I can't uninstall this optional update and I have no restore points...

  Can not install you because there is no entry for it in programs and features or updates installed or because the list has no uninstall capability because there is such an option, but it does not work?

  I know that you do not want to hear this, but you must keep some restore points available for situations like this, even if you are not using intensively or on a regular basis.

  Download and install Revo: http://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/revo-uninstaller/revouninstaller.html and see if it works.  Be careful.  The update cannot be a separate thing that can be uninstalled (this is often the case and only a system restore can fix the problem) and try to uninstall can uninstall the entire program - but then again, you may need to do anyway.

  If this does not work, then I suggest you to uninstall the entire program (update and everything) and re-install the original program without the update (and then download and add some other updates that you installed before the latter).  You must also reinstall the drivers and/or firmware - I don't know exactly what is involved, but it should probably be similar if it is not exactly like when you got it.  This should solve the problem.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• Failed to install an optional update due to configuration errors. Errors are now fixed, but cannot find the update to make another attempt.

  I installed Skype and I'm using a webcam Logitech C210. Sound works fine but the person that I want to connect with shows a blank computer screen. I checked the settings on my end and everything seems to work fine, including a short video of me at the bottom right of my screen.

  Microsoft sent an optional update called "Logitech-Communication, hardware device, Streaming Media and Broadcast-Webcam 210". However when I tried to install it failed.
  With the help of Microsoft Help, the problem with the update appeared to be several errors in configuration that have been set.
  However, I was not able to find the answer key updated to try to install it and hopefully the video problem knows my contact.
  My question is basically, how do I find the optional update.
  Thank you.
  
   

  Hello

  I understand that you now have returned back to factory settings and have installed all updates except for service packs.

  .

  You will need to install the required service packs-

  You will need to install SP1 before installing Sp2.

  Once your computer is up to date, then you can think of Windows 7

  I can't help you with the trend, but from memory, you must allow it's Installer to download to facilitate the download and installation etc.

  Use the function "restore" to restore your system to a point before installing optional updates in windows.

  After that, go to Windows Update and 'hide' the update that caused the problem.
