update of ms 4/14 have major cause of slowdown

Vista sp2

alerted to updates yesterday

downloaded and installed updates

laptop crashed and now runs VERY slow

clairel57,
Do you have what updates installed?  Did the updates do not install, if so, what are the error codes (look in your history of update for this)?

Perform a clean boot and follow the troubleshooting article, then back with the results.

  • Latest updates of Windows for Nvidia 9500 gt, causing problems

    I have a Nvidia 9500 GT vidocard in my pc running Windows 64-bit edition and do not use the pc for gaming.
    All stable and fine until the batch of updates from windows in March.
    I installed all the updates (major & optional); the optional updates included a large for Nvidia.
    the pc then started freezing whenever I closed Firefox or IE.
    Tried the following, but without success:
    (a) Firefox reset
    (point) - did not work!
    (c) push dirver; didn't work...

    The situation recovered by retrieving the Acronis backup January State system.

    In the face of the long list of windows updates, I installed only the important windows ones and the optionals left, including NVIDIA.

    Everything is stable throughout the rest of the month of March and until this week.

    Monday 8 I got Acronis backup of what had been the stable system.
    Tuesday, last batch of updates has arrived and I installed all the more important. Creating restore point and installed separately all the accessories (including the NVIDIA), creating another restore point.

    No prize for guessing that freezing after closing Firefox or IE started!

    Tried a), b) and c) above again, all without success, and finally allowed to restore pc Monday using Acronis.

    When I checked then windows updates, NVidia is now shown as important (not an option).

    I installed all the updates (except Nvidia) and ok at the moment.

    I'm tempted to follow "if it isn't broken, don't fix it approach" by ignoring the Nvidia Important Update.

    Are there reasons why this should cause me problems?
    Is it possible to hide this update Nvidia Important so that I can't install it inadvertently with the next batch of updates Windows Important?

    Thanks for the info about the system restore. I hope that the system remains stable and that I won't have to see if safe mode system restore work - fingers crossed.

    Would appreciate your comments on my approach to ignore "NVidia Important Update" in my opinion, is the problem cause and hide in Windows Update.

  • Update Windows Installer KB3002885 (and later KB3000061) causes "Failure Configuring Windows Updates, changes of restoration"

    I manually ran Windows Update for about 22 updates including KB3002885 (KB3000061 is not included at this time).  It resulted in "Failure Configuring Windows Updates, changes of recovery".

    Measures taken (without the fix):

    -Reboot

    -Restart in Boot Clean with Services MS no disabled state

    -Updated Troubleshotter

    -System Restore (3 weeks)

    -DISM.exe / Online/Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    I started installing updates a little at a time and was able to install all the updates about 22 except KB3002885, which always causes the problem 'failure configuration... '. ».

    Updates at this point (November 14, 2014) identified KB3000061.  When update was executed for this update by itself it also caused the problem of the "default configuration... '. ».

    Updates about 22 that have been installed successfully some of them were: KB3000853, KB3004150, KB3003057, KB2978121 and KB2972101.  A more complete list is available if it is useful.

  • Windows Update driver Fresco Logic USB Hub rot caused the pilot to read device status: the drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28).

    Windows Update driver Fresco Logic USB Hub rot caused the pilot to read device status: the drivers for this device are not installed. (Code 28). The Roll Back button is not active. Where can I get the previous driver that came with my system. ASUS N53S Windows 7. Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community.

    I understand your annoyance that you cannot update the driver hub USB rot. Please follow the steps below to help you to solve the problem.

    I would like to inform you that a Code 28 error is caused by a driver missing for that piece of hardware.

    There are all sorts of reasons that a driver could not be installed for a device, but your troubleshooting the problem will be the same regardless of the root cause.

    • Remove or reconfigure newly installed unit.
    • Restore the version before your driver update.
    • Use system restore to undo recent changes in Device Manager.

    Step 1: Roll back the driver to the version before your update.

    If you are having problems with your computer or device after upgrading sound driver, you can restore to an earlier device driver. If you are having problems with your computer or device after upgrading sound driver, you can restore to an earlier device driver. If you are having problems with your computer or device after upgrading sound driver, you can restore to an earlier device driver. If you are having problems with your computer or device after upgrading sound driver, you can restore to an earlier device driver. Check out the link below to make back the driver:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-in/Windows/restore-driver-previous-version#1TC=Windows-7

    When Windows 7 starts up again, it will load with the device driver of this material that you had previously installed.

    I suggest you to uninstall the driver from hub to rot Fresco Logic USB Device Manager and install the most recent on the manufacturer's Web site.
