• GUI changed after Windows Update

  Updates installed fine (automatic) update, but after a "reboot" my taskbar on the bottom looks like in Windows Me. I do not like and I don't know how to change...

  does anyone have the same problems after updates?

  Hi PA bear.  Appreciate your advice I thank you for taking the time.

  After you have started in my PC this morning, the problem is now resolved itself!  I have the normal taskbar and the theme of return! I didn't do anything more after my comment previous, just stop and went to bed. And now by some miracle it is resolved...!

  Anyway, as mentioned, your help is very appreciated and I will make a note of the links etc. for later use.

  (Just to note Ref the idea of changing the theme manually to swican, I got the same options that confused cuddlecat - i.e. no vista in the themes option).

  all the best

• Display has changed after Windows update

  After you have installed the latest updates of windows on 12/12/2012, my screen has changed. All the graphics have been expanded, including the desktop icons, taskbar, tool bars, bars of window, etc.. I checked the configuration of the monitor and the icon size in the taskbar and start menu properties (which remains set on small icons), but I can't find how to go back to my original display size.

  The installed updates were:

  Update security for Windows XP (KB2758857)

  Update security for Windows XP (KB2753842)

  Update security for Windows XP (KB2779030)

  Update security for Windows XP (KB2770660)

  Update for Windows XP (KB2779562)

  A security update cumulative for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows XP (KB2761465)

  Update of security suites for Microsoft Office 2007 (KB2760416)

  Update of security for Word Viewer (KB2760498)

  and

  5.10 Skype for Windows (KB2727727), who fails to install

  Grateful for any help please?

  Thank you for your kind assistance which directed me to the solution. Change the screen resolution in the problem resolved display settings. Strange how that changed spontaneously after the restart following the installation of the security updates.

  Thank you very much

• screen resolution changed after Windows update

  PC: Dell Vostro 220 s

  OS: Windows XP Professional SP3

  Monitor: Dell 2009WFP LCD, is the native resolution of 1680 x 1050 (according to CNET review)

  Problem: After an automatic update of Windows, my screen resolution has been changed to 800 x 600, where the police has been huge and fuzzy on the screen.  Then, I realize now the display settings only have 5 options, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1280 x 1024, 1600 x 1200 and 1920 x 1440.  The last of them is out of range.  So I put it to 1600 x 1200, but everything on the screen appears stretched.

  I tried system 1) at the earliest days of restoration, 2) unplug the monitor and reconnect the monitor, the monitor 3) download the Dell Web site WFP2009 driver, nothing works.

  Nothing has similar problems, how do I get the near resolution of 1680 x 1050, which is classified to the native resolution for this monitor according to the CNET Web site, and I vaguely remember what the maximum resolution in the display settings.

  Appreciate any help.  Thanks in advance.

  Hi mumimi,

  It seems that your system was shipped with Intel graphics card. As several drivers are appearing with exclamation points, I would say that you can download the latest drivers here-> enter the serial number of your system-> select OS--> download/install drivers in good order as given here.

  Please respond to the findings. He won't be far away.

• Problems after Windows Update on Vista wireless

  It seems that other people have a similar problem, but I'll post this new...
  I've been running Windows Vista Ultimate on my Toshiba laptop for years without any problems.  Earlier this year, I started seeing issues after Windows updates.  The main problem is that after updates Windows, my wireless network is is more noticed and the wireless card (which was installed on the computer, and never had problems before) is not recognized.  I manually installed updated drivers with no luck.  The only thing that has worked is to do a system restore to a point before the updates.  The problem seems to be related to an update in general, I can't uninstall.

  I find it extremely ironic that I have no problems with Vista until Windows 7 is launched. First of all, it's the wireless card, then a problem with a driver graphics card (apparently... which seems to be fixed now) and return to the wireless card.  Should I expect to continue to have problems unless I upgrade to Windows 7?  I can't continue to spend half of my day trying to fix my computer after an update that is supposed to fix the errors, but I don't like the feeling that I am forced to upgrade.

  Hi dabaum77,

  From your post, it seems that the issue was occurring when Windows updates are installed automatically again even after the restoration of the system and that is why I suggest to restore the system again to a point before the updates and download and install Windows updates manually.

  4. under recommended updates, select the Give me recommended updates the same way I receive important updates check box, and then click OK. Need administrator permission if you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  
  Reference:

  Install the updates one by one and check the update is causing the problem to occur. If the problem persists due to a particular update, repeat the process and refrain from settling the problem causing the update to.

  
  You can also check the update problem in Windows Update history.

  2. in the programs and features, click the link updates installed.
   

  

   
  3. after a few seconds, Windows Vista will load the list of installed updates. Scroll down the page until you find the update you want to delete, select it with the mouse and then click on uninstall.
   

  

   
  4. Windows Vista will ask you to confirm that you want to uninstall the update you selected. Click Yes and the uninstall process will begin.

  Choose one of these settings:

  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.

• Good question after Windows update on Satellite P100 PSPA3E

  I encountered a problem with my sound card after a Windows Update. It became an old analog tuner with problems of dust on his volume knob. (this is a reference "sounds like" for those old enough to remember) I updated the driver to the most recent DriverGuide.com, no joy.

  I even did a complete system restore "with the"product restore disk."" Which fixed the problem until Windows updated the right files for trash again. I don't know what files do the dirty on my card since most of the windows system updates are performed while I "continue to work! Anyone with ideas?

  Thank you

  JD

  Hello

  What operating system do you use? XP or Vista?

  Satellite P100 PSPA3E must use a sound chip Intel high definition audio Conexant CX20551-22.

  I recommend to remove the sound card in Device Manager after installing Windows updates.
  Then restart the computer and install the latest audio drivers available that support the sound chip HD Conexant CX20551-22.

  First of all, you should try to use the driver for the Toshiba page. If this does not work, check the Intel page!
  Please don t forget to restart the laptop after windows update finished.
