• Shut down and install updates

  I am running Vista 64 bit.

  I got a ToolTip hovering over my close icon that said Shut Down and install updates.  So I clicked it, noticed there are several updates to install and walked off to go do something else while it has been updated.  After it updated, it will turn off.  Now when I hit the power button to turn the PC on his saying to check my boot device or change my startup location and press a key to continue.  I tried to use my vista cd to retrieve and repair the safe mode, but it does not find my hard drive!

  I guess what I need to know is, in fact the process of update killed my hard drive?  I can get it back without cracking open the case and replace my hard drive?  And if I need to replace my HARD drive how can I recover my data?

  Change how Windows installs or informs you about updateshttp://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Change-how-Windows-installs-or-notifies-you-about-updates>

  If you select the download updates but let me choose... option, no update will install without your approval. Suppose an update will require a reboot and does not approve the installation of an update until & unless you are ready to restart.

  You can change the setting "notify only". Once you have done this, you will need to approve the updates are downloaded updates are installed commandeLorsque, which they are installed.

  What are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

  While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other Microsoft software, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live [as well as Silverlight & Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC.

  Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx>

  If you disable Microsoft Update, your default update source is "reversed" update of Windows, but it does NOT neutralize automatic updates.

• Windows 7 - system hangs on install updates 1 of 2

  Windows 7 hangs on the first when told to close on the first configuration of the user. The installation program will suffer if I turn off manually?

  * original title - please do not power off or unplug your machine. Installing Update 1 of 2... in movement. Hard drive light does not *.

  No, it should not be, Windows 7 uses a file system that is logged, so recovery should not be a problem, the system will pick up where it left off.

  I recommend do you a manual download and install updates that have been incriminated by go http://www.microsoft.com/downloads.
