PC crashes after installation of the auto updates

Whenever I have download the new updates for my windows XP, I have problems with my pc freezing. First of all, I hear a ping then my cursor starts stuttering & my program freezes. It's driving me crazy! I have not downloaded anything other than these stupid 'critical updates' & a game or two of wild tangent. I ran my virus, to date scanner, I received no errors blue screen, or any error mess. of any kind.

Hi jamiescandy,

Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

(1) the computer freeze after each automatic update?

(2) when exactly the computer freezes?

(3) is there a particular point or program that you are trying to access and the computer crashes?

I suggest you to have access to the program in safe mode and see if it freezes.

  • Portege R100 crashes after installation of the graphics driver Vista

    Hello world.

    I tried to put Vista on my R100 and surprisingly that everything works well. However, the only thing that's not the driver graphic. He moved very well and watch as signed but the machine hangs all the time when using the driver.

    When you use the standard vga driver in windows, all right, but obviously you can not watch movies or whatever it is coz of the pilot garbage.

    any ideas people?

    Thank you

    Rob

    Hello

    I put t know where you found the driver for Portege M100 Vista because I just checked the page of the Toshiba Vista driver and did not find the graphics drivers for Vista!

    AFAIK the R100 uses a Trident XP4m32 with 32 MB of video memory graphics card.
    You search for vista for this graphics card driver or you will use the standard graphic driver.
    In my opinion, you should be a happy man because you were able to install Vista on your laptop and it works with the standard graphics driver.
    As much as I know this laptop is not vista capable and I don t think you will be able to use it with a maximum return.

  • How to install a driver after you turn off the auto-update

    I disabled auto-update Windows Update drivers by following the instructions in the following article:

    It was due to the update of Windows Installer drivers on top of my existing bluetooth drivers and prevent the unit to work. I had to reinstall Windows to solve this, UN-installing then the installation of the Dell printer drivers did not work.
    I just bought a Freecom 2 to drive that connects via eSATA. Unfortunately, the instructions say that I don't need to install drivers because Windows will do it automatically! Ugh.
    I am reluctant to turn to the auto-update as it will probably destroy bluetooth again. So the question is: How can I install Freecom drivers and the problem of bluetooth do not breed take the risk?
    Note: Looking at the dialog box "want you Windows to download the driver software? ' there is an option to" install the driver software from Windows Update if it does not appear on my computer.
    Well well... driver Dell bluetooth software is on my computer (the software to install, it is on my C: drive and it is also installed) so not preventing him to get the version of Windows Update? I am concerned about the confidence that, given that the driver has been installed also the last time he downloaded the MS driver (although the auto-update feature was turned on at that time here). I'm afraid to think that the Dell driver's oldest (who is) and so he gets crushed.
    Thanks in advance.

    "the fact that the manual says that he needs a driver to be"automatically installed by the operating system"suggests that... he needs Windows Update."

    (1) while I don't have an external HARD drive in a box I have a case of a slot for external e-SATA replaceable hot which is about the same as a commercial external HDD, but without the box.
    When I plug in a HARD drive into the slot in Windows automatically detects the drive.
    Windows should automatically install the drivers for basic/generic for most of the devices when it detects something new just to be attached/connected. Once Windows did, this 'device' must be posted from there on.
    This is not the same thing as let the Windows updates to install the drivers.

    So, when you plug in the external hard drive on e-SATA port, the first time Windows pops up a similar message to-"new device detected... the driver installation, you can check if the device is detected and drivers are installed by going to computer management > Device Manager to see if your external HARD drive is on the list of hard drives."
    If non - R / click on hard drives and click "search physical changes.
    There is also an option here to update the drivers.

    You are quite correct disable optional updates.
    It is not a recommended option, especially for the graphics drivers and chipset.
    Personally, if the mfg of the material provides drivers on their website always download and install the drivers manually.
    As a result of that it is prudent to updated Windows configuration only updates are available so you can choose which you want to install and choose to install it on your own time inform.
    This way you can close applications and browsers and better to avoid the possibility of corruption updated leaving the priority update. It is also
    more course with a clean install of Windows to start with sp1, and then do the other updates in small batches.

    2. when the HARD drive is connected and recognized in the Device Manager are moving
    for the computer management > disk management. This shows the good
    for HARD drive capacity?
    If the HARD drive has only a small partition and unallocated space that is perhaps why only a small capacity is shown elsewhere.  You can format the HARD drive and
    create a new Partition or Partitions here.

    "b if I uninstall/remove device, then as soon as I tried to install the driver from the manufacturer it seemed to install ok, but... still bluetooth didn't work." It simply detects all devices everything I tried. »

  • Windows 10 - How do I stop the auto update July 29

    Hi all!

    I just purchased a Lenovo Yoga 3 14. I am trying to set up (any suggestions welcome, but I have been reading this forum and looking online for help) and have been unable to find an answer to the following question.

    The agent told me that any PC, I bought (which currently has Windows 8.1) automatically updates itself to Windows 10 July 29, once connected to the internet.

    My problem is that I will be sitting at the bar at the end of the month with this laptop (ending June 30). The bar exam using ExamSoft (by SofTest), which does not support Windows 10 (again, not guaranteed by the bar exam - and certainly not something I want to have to worry). Review of software requires an internet connection to download the review, although it is not connected to the internet, other than for the upload.

    I turned off the auto update (for now) and am hoping that if I do not connect to the internet for a long time (although I can't control how long and it may need to be connected for a long time to download), it will not be updated. Does anyone know of a way I can stop this automatic update? (When I've updated my old laptop Win8, then 8.1, I could opt for the update and run it when I chose, but also go back to the old version if I did not like the news. "It seems strange to me that there is an automatic update without option).

    Thanks in advance!

    As mentioned Atli, it won't auto update. By getting the so-called "reservation", you still get to determine when the update is installed after that date, but it will significantly speed up the upgrade process because you don't have to wait for a download of 3 GB.

    To uninstall the callback, see: http://www.ghacks.net/2015/04/17/how-to-remove-windows-10-upgrade-updates-in-windows-7-and-8/
