FreeCell, solitaire and spider solitaire are now black and white after Windows update

Hello

I wonder if anyone can help. have never used a forum before bare with me if I don't give all the details, but the basics are as follows:
Windows update two days ago and since then freecell, solitary and lonely spider are black and white.  Mahjong, purble place etc. are fine colors and graphics are ok.
put online to update the graphics drivers and computer says that all drivers are up-to-date.  also turned windows has on and outside and checked freecell etc. on games and uninstalled and reinstalled. no luck. "computer is a dell desktop computer and is about six years old, but I regularly updated and try to"keep a tidy ship.
I hope someone can help
or if I've lost games can I download a version of freecell, who has an option to restart game
Thank you
Maria

The system restore solved my problem and after that I had to do it AGAIN today, I went to Windows Update and changed the settings so that the updates would not automatically download and install on my computer.  It is certainly a problem with one of the Microsoft updates.  I just hope that they recognize that one and let us know as soon as POSSIBLE!  I'll be very selective on what updates, I am hosting in the future!

  • Empty (black) screen boot after Windows updates

    I had this problem on two computers this week... until now. Run windows update after I restart the computer. When the computer reboots, they can start to a blank screen (black). These were not updated video card basis. Also, I tried to use the safe mode, but it crashes on MUP. SYS. I ran chkdsk... and who has not fixed it. Any ideas other then a new installation? Thanks for your help!

    Kevin_C_K,
    You said you ran chkdsk and it didn't fix it, but it will report all the problems?
    If you are still having this problem here is a couple of things to try (if you haven't already done so).
    Run the sfc/scannow utility.
    When you have run chkdsk if you do not use the /r switch, then repeat the it like Chkdsk/r

    I am running Windows 7 and noticed that Windows updates did not work. The parameters are defined for the update every day. When I went to update manually returned an error WindowsUpdate_80070017.  MSFT site was no help. Any recommendations?

    Since neither updates Jan - 10 have installed, I'm going to hand you Support MS in the hope that they can resolve the problem. See below.

    That being said, is an interpretation of the 80070017 - cyclic redundancy check error "a device attached to the system does not work," which suggests that a hardware problem might be the cause of the error (although I must say that it is a very low possibility in this case).

    Good luck!

  • Lost all bookmarks and hyperlinks are now black! (Mac)

    When using firefox, my browser froze that I ran out of memory. I tried to close some windows, but the browser has been suspended, however it was frozen, I had to force so quit smoking. When I re firefox open all my favorites have disappeared, as well in the bookmark folder and the toolbar. I tried to restore, but it gives the error message "Unable to process The Backup File". I tried after the support pages with no luck.
    I also tried 15.0.1 to 14.0.1 decommissioning but it made no difference.
    Also, I noticed when I was with google to search for help all hyperlinks are now showing in black instead of blue! What is happening with several web pages.

    Is it possible to manually restore the bookmarks folder or is it impossible? I can't understand how to solve this problem.

    Latest version of Mac OS x, I'm running 10.5.8 is
    The current version of Firefox is 14.0.1

    Thanks in advance to anyone who can offer any help.

    I would like to say that I solved this problem myself.
    Decided to risk using the button 'Reset firefox' (help > troubleshooting information > reset Firefox) which worked a treat. As soon as I pressed it, everything has been restored! I am surprised that I have found that this referred to in the help docs.

    Hope this can help someone in the future.

  • I got the Conficker virus and now I can't get Windows Update to work

    I got the Conficker Virus/worm infected my system, but have now got rid of him (I think).

    I noticed yesterday that Windows Update has just stopped working, it has a red symbol X and said 'windows update cannot currently check updates because the service is not running'. Then, I figured that it could be a virus and tried to download AVG anti-virus, but the virus stopped me to access a website or a program to do with protection against viruses (including all Microsoft sites). Finally, I used a separate laptop and negative to download AVG and some other anti-virus/malware programs and down them mode without failure. I then ran Windows malware removal tool. That seems to have gotten rid of the virus (which has been identified as Conficker), I can now go to any Web site, so it seems that the virus is gone or disabled.

    However I can not even access Windows Update. My guess is the virus disabled some component of it, but how now operate again? Is it possible to re-enable it manually? Or y at - it something that I can download to fix?

    Hello

    Conficker often comes with other malware, so once you think that you're rid of him real problems then begin run through

  • Error message: "the site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to view", while running Windows updates.

    Original title: Windows updates works do not, cannot get windows updates

    I had to reinstall Windows XP service pack 2. I went to the updates and got this message. The website has encountered a problem and can not display the page that you are trying to view  I tried several times and got the same results.

    The problem is that you need to install Service Pack 3 before being able to get all post-SP3 updates. :-)

    Here's what you need to do:
    Preliminary work:

    Download the installation files of SP3, IE8 and Microsoft Security Essentials, which is an effective antivirus/antimalware program. I prefer to keep these (and other useful files) on a USB key, but this is optional. Here are the links to all the installation of three files:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)

    (You can TOTALLY ignore the message "intended for it professionals"!)

    http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/security-essentials (for MMS)

    1. physically disconnect from the Internet. Also unplug all unnecessary devices!

    2. temporarily disable the automatic updates. To do this:

    Start | Control Panel (switch to Classic view if not already selected). Automatic updates

    Select "Turn off automatic updates" and click OK.

    3. install the SP3. Restart TWICE.

    4. switch to IE8. Restart TWICE. (Note: it is important to let IE at the level before the upgrade to SP3 IE6.) After you are in SP3, then you can switch IE6 to IE8).

    5 install MSE.

    (What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).

    6. make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should already be):

    Start | Control Panel | Security Center

    (Now you can physically reconnect to the Internet. Update Antivirus program.)

    7. visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates. Restart each time you are prompted.

    8. reactivate the automatic updates.
