Windows 7 - any problems with the installation of update KB 976972?

I have a 4 GB VPCF12M0E Sony vaio which has an NVIDIA graphics card and I have problems using external hard drives via USB connections, so I guess that this download may be suitable for me?

Has anyone with a similar computer downloaded this hotfix if even what download that you use (i.e. X 86 based or X 64) and doing a job?

I ask this question because I never downloaded a solution directly in this way and don't want to chance screwig to the top of my installation of Windows 7 that apart from this default, works well.

Thanking you all in anticpation.

Create a system restore before installing. Someone else used the platform (x 86 or x 64), use the architecture you have. In addition, you can create a backup of your installation, just to be sure:

    Hi all

    I have a problem with the Thinkpad X 230. After a recent update of Windows 7 (64-bit), the screen resolution is set to 800 x 600 and brightness to the minimum. FN + F8/F9 does not work. The brightness is uncontrolled. I had to restore the system before the update.

    How to solve the problem, do anyone know?

    Thank you!

    Hi Isosik,

    Welcome to Lenovo Community!

    According to the request, we understand that you are facing problem with the display resolution on your ThinkPad X 230.

    If you have updated the drivers from Windows update, sometimes this kind of problem occurs with windows generic drivers for cause of driver incompatibility, suggest always update drivers only via the ThinkVantage System Update utility. Update only the application of Microsoft Windows Update.

    You can also manually download the drivers from the Lenovo support site.

    Hi halecky6,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site!

    (a) update you are trying to install? (It would be better, if you can provide the number of KB)

    (b) are the other updates related to Windows from installing on your computer?

    I suggest you try the following steps:

    Step 1: Disable the software security and then try to install the update

    Note: Activate security software once the test is completed.

    Step 2: Download and install the update in the clean boot state

    To perform a clean boot on a computer that is running Windows Vista, follow these steps.

    1. click on start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

    2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

    3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

    4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

    5. click on OK.

    6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

    After starting the computer, download the update manually and try to install it.

    Note: Return the computer to normal - reset the computer to start as usual (follow step 7 in the link) once everything is done.
