  Anyone had the same experience and can identify which of these is the cause of the problem.

  For the moment I do not apply these updates.

  Hello

  We wish to inform you that after you install the update 3133977 on a Windows 7 x 64 system which includes a main focus on the ASUS card, the system does not start, and it generates a Secure Boot error on the ASUS BIOS screen. This problem occurs because ASUS has helped the motherboard turn on the secure boot process, even if Windows 7 does not support this feature.

  To resolve this issue, go to the following ASUS support site to find out how to disable Secure Boot for Windows 7:

• Updated driver problem with Windows 7.

  Why Windows 7 Driver updates managed by third parties and not directly by Microsoft, the developers of Windows 7, I received requests from third party who claim to be partners of Microsoft to download Windows 7 drivers up-to-date. Such a request is contained in the URL below:

  http://www.Driverupdate.NET/articles/download_theme/Windows-7-driver-downloads-cmp2.php?APS=article_content_win_7_drivers&P2=%5ESW2%5Exdm015&gclid=CO64l5rW7b4CFWNqOgodKlEAdQ#common_problems

  We have no connection with that third party and what guarantees do we have that this download will not cause problems with our Windows 7 system or load it with large amounts of Malware that will require huge efforts on our part to clean up?   Microsoft has abandoned its responsibility to its customers who have purchased this operating system of Microsoft?

  As a cautious Windows 7 subscriber, I am reluctant to run the risk of damaging my installation of Windows 7. Why Microsoft cannot provide updates or issue a statement that ensure their safety to its community of users, many members who are not clever in technology?

  Hello

  I think you misunderstand that wrote the drivers for the hardware.

  The hardware manufacturer write the driver software for their products, not Microsoft

  Microsoft wrote only the drivers for their own hardware.

  You only get the latest drivers for them to real hardware manufacturer's website, as Microsoft does normally or those have the most recent drivers available as Microsoft is based from the 3rd hardware manufacturer left to provide.

  And no, Microsoft does not recommend these Web sites.

  This is standard information on how to get updates of pilot;

  "You should get your software driver from your computer or hardware manufacturer, not through Windows Update (with the exception of updates from Microsoft Hardware)."

  Access the site on your computer or equipment manufacturing > Driver and Software Support Section > search your computer or hardware model number > then your operating system > locate the correct drivers > download and install. »

• Update to Windows 8.1 causing problems with S7-392

  Since the upgrade to Windows 8.1, I have experienced frustrating problems with my S7-392.

  At this point the two main issues are:

  1. when running on battery, it stops intermittently.  Happens if I am using or not.  I've fiddled with the power such as disabling sleep options, etc.

  2. when waking from sleep or stand-by (don't know what mode it is in), by opening the cover, I'll see the announcement of logo sceen Acer will start "from auto repair.   Then it goes to a screen where it is said he couldn't fix it, and I want to restart or go to Advanced Options.

  I have updated all drivers and BIOS the newer versions which were released on 10/13.

  At this point, I feel like I want to go back to the original settings.

  Someone else is having these problems after updatig?

• 82566MM security update causes problem

  I use a network with fixed ip addresses setting and a 300 tinkpad X.

  After installing Intel 82566 MM Gigabit Network Connection update via Windows Update on every reboot

  the default gateway is removed. I can enter it manually in the network settings, but this isn't the way it should work.

  Does anyone have a solution for this?

  Concerning

  Johann

  I'm terribly sorry. Not the NIC driver update caused the problem. The problem came with Vista Service Pack 2.

  I found the following solution and it works now fine again:

  1. open the registry, regedit.exe
  2. go into the path: HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/Tcpip/parameters/Interfaces.
  3. here you must select the CLSID of your network card when you change the settings. You'll probably recognize it watching the IPAddress value which will have IP address for this adapter.
  4. open the value 'Passerelle_par_defaut' of doubleclicking it. You will see a list of all the bridges that disappeared! (maybe in your case it will be single, in my case it was because of the many test multiple addresses) Most likely, the first line will be empty. I don't know how this little flaw can be a big problem. However, if you manually delete the first empty line, click OK and restart your system, everything should be working again fine.

• Recovery system causing problems with the size of the screen.

  Due to some problems I had, I finally had to yield and perform a system recovery back to the manufacturer's specifications.  Once this is done, I downloaded all the updates to Vista, all the drivers, etc..  Everything is square and works fine now, with a big problem.  I bought a monitor 20 "a few months ago.  It worked fine before the recovery is done.  Since the resumption, the display is smaller, as if I still had the old monitor 15 '' on the system.  I did that the driver for the monitor is correct and up-to-date.  I found a way to enlarge the display of the size of the screen in an online search, but it does not clear up the problem.  For example... If I go to a site like the Pogo, the bottom of the site is almost normal size for the monitor, but the game pop up displays the size of the screen 15 ''.  I tried everything I know and can't get this last problem fixed.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  I also checked the resolution and makes sure it's OK for this monitor.  Thanks for your help.

  Do you have the driver from Microsoft or directly from the manufacturer?  If Microsoft, go to the manufacturer website and download THE latest drivers applicable on your screen and the version of Vista (Microsoft sometimes cause problems).  Does the monitor require any firmware - if so, download and install that too much of the manufacturer's web site.  You can also update the video card drivers and firmware just in case it is the underlying cause of the problem - again go to the web site of the manufacturer to get the files rather than using those available through Microsoft.

  Go to start / Control Panel / customization / display settings / and make sure that your monitor is displayed in the drop-down list.  If this is not the case, click on the box and see if you can find your monitor and then select and make the box extend the desktop to this monitor is selected.  Go into the advanced settings, click list all Modes and try one at the top, if it is not already selected (assuming that it is appropriate for your monitor).  If this does not help, try others that are compatible with your monitor to see if you can find one that allows you to achieve your goals.  It may not work, but it's probably worth a try.

  Other than that, I don't know what to think.  You already seem to have covered most if not all of the bases.  If the above does not work, maybe someone else review this thread will have other ideas to offer.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  I understand that if you remove your battery, you can't boot up your laptop.  This is not unusual. some laptops are set up in this way.

  I understand that when you have the phone connected and charge the batteries of your performance is lowered.  There is more than one draw powere when it loads to the battery.

  Here is a link to the laptops HP - test and calibrate the battery (Windows 7) to ensure that there is no problem with the battery.

  Could also remove the battery once you put under tension.

• Window update causing problems of printer driver

  Hi, I have a laptop running XP and router wireless computer (WAG54G) and a set of HP6380 in one. About 2 nights ago an update to Windows Installer by himself and rebooted the laptop (even though I have some turned off automatic updates what they seem to be screwing with anything these updates produce still grr)...

  I went to try and print and to found the 6380 was absent from the list of available printers... The problem is not with the wireless network (as it is trendy and functional). I don't know what it does the update of windows... but when I tried to reinstall the drivers for this printer from the disc, he acknowledged that they were already installed... So I uninstalled them instead (and it is taken up only parts of the driver remained and he removed these pieces).

  Then I tried to do a fresh driver... install that took a long time because it got stuck at the end... Finally, he came up with an error and so I tried to introduce him, HP - and received click on a desktop icon... (Icon HP - XP Installation). I tried it but it tells me to 1) Reinstall driver (done twice -) solve printing problems wireless (not a problem at this point given that I have no printer driver and I can use the network wireless for other things very well) well tried anyway... or 2

  Anyone has any suggestions please > in the past when Windows updates have caused problems, I used the system restore to roll back, but this is only a temporary solution - as Windows insists on the updates I want!

  Thank you very much!

  If you have the original HP software CD, look in the folder of the ccc/utils for a L3_unintsall (or similar).  Run for an uninstall very full.

  Reset.

  Now, download the latest version of the software for your printer from the "Support & Driver" link at the top of this page.  DO NOT reinstall from the CD (a good rule is in general not the CDs software, but to go to the website of the manufacturer for the latest and best).
