• Windows/Microsoft Update crashes, takes all the CPU can't be fixed by all the recommendations I found

  Windows XP, SP3, it worked fine. Suddenly Windows/Microsoft Update crashes and uses all the CPU while trying to assess what needs to be updated. The only way to stop him is to kill the process.

  A ran Fixit from Microsoft (support.microsoft.com/kb949104), who said that he repaired the window update, but could not fix "problems installing the recent updates. Nothing else was not fixed.

  Problems found

  Recent updates installation problems

  Not fixed

  Fix Windows Update

  Successful

  If I look at the properties of the de...\System32\wuaueng.dll I have the most recent version for XP (7.6.7600.256).

  I know that the support for XP will end this year, but I want to Microsoft Update to work down there.

  Any help appreciated. Thank you

  You are welcome.

  How about that.  Don't you love it when a plan comes together?  Windows updates only or material for pilots also and then update windows is good, but for a more broad ability of other applications Microsoft, then Microsoft Update and Office update is good for a shopping for updates of every Microsoft product you have.

  You suppose wrongly, and I thought I answered this before.  Technically, you can re-enable the automatic updates but that will require you disabling updates every Monday just before black Tuesday and then manually download and install the cumulative security update newly released and restart before you activate the updates automatic (or notifications only) once more.  It is more reliable just disable automatic updates and do not have the headache.  Disable the horse of notification that is displayed in the status bar, and that you don't mind.

  Please mark this thread as a response.  Thank you.

  To not argue the point, but XP users required the kind of brilliant 'support' who gave XP since the time of the IE7 to IE8 'false upgrade' users XP need like a hole in the head.

• Vista 64-bit update crashed my computer

  My office has a great until last night updated (December 13, 2011) auto Windows Vista 64-bit.  At the stop, I noticed that I had the option 'install updates day and then stop' to highlight.  I chose this option, and he told me that he was installing a large number (12? 16?) of updates.  I left the computer to do its thing.

  This morning, my wife turned on my computer to discover that she was crashing on start.  It is just at the point where it recognizes my Raid 1 profile (has a yellow 'Verify', I noticed), and then gives me the screen error-'Windows doesn't have to correctly install the drivers' or words to that effect.

  I am now trying to 'fix' by booting from my drive to Vista 64.  However, it was posted the same page/message for about 30 minutes now:

  Startup Repair

  Your computer could not start.  Startup Repair is checking your system for problems... etc etc.

  Is there anything wrong with this machine before updates last night.  I use McAfee Anti-virus, which is updated.  Grrr!

  I seems that the Raid array was the issue.  As a final attempt to solve the problem, I physically unplug one of my two hard drives and rebooted.  When restarted, the computer scanned the remaining drive, fixed some data corrupted, then started successfully with Vista.  I reconnected it the reader who then 'checked' himself to another.

  Still and all, it's a real "IN." these updates to Windows for this to a computer running normally.  I can't be the only person in the world running under Vista 64 that has a Raid 1 configuration.  Microsoft needs to do a better job with these updates.

  Thank you for taking the time to help me with my problem.

• Windows Media player CRASHES my computer soon after I put it in FULLSCREEN MODE

  Island mouse will freeze, everything. I can't do cont-alt-del-nothing use it but a cold close and restart. I tried a DIFFICULTY IT 50685 MS for a similar sinario - in their senario, they could do cont-alt-delete. Whenever I try to watch in my event viwer to see the error - as no error appears on screen - but no luck.  I tried to find out if their was a recent update from MS done on my computer for WMP, but none - not to say that any other updated Windows might have messed up there because I've never had this prob before.  I've been in many forums, many people different OS w have the same prob, they NEVER get a resolution well. If I can't get a fix, I am looking for a free program that will PLAY WMV on Vista - I downloaded a lot - and they will not play and my Media Center don't re - sync audio properly if I pause/play. VLC, GOM, few others, did not.  I play downloaded files with DRM protection WMV - when I play a movie family-not DRM in fullscreen, the gel can't.  {BUT I've NEVER had this problem before with ANY movie fileI] have Vista Home SP2, Toshiba Satellite P205D, AMD Anthion, Dual core, 1 GB of memory, 90 GB of free, 32-bit.} and the graphics card ATI Radeon card - update of drivers. EHow suggested changes to the mode classic customization and uncheck the box, shadow under icons-no dice and stop video acceleration - my computer won't let me, but I went to the ATI Catalist platform and there was something allowing acceleration when playing WMV files, which I unchecked to see if he'll fix it, but it didn't. No simple solution possible, maybe the patch? I'm NOT a super tecky and do not reload my whole OS just to fix a shitty program. Thanks in advance for your help.

• Want 700: updates crashed our computer and stole our windows key. :(

  Our computer decided that he did not like the updates on May 11 and crashed in the middle. We have refreshed our system, everything is back with the exception of our windows key. It tells us that we activate when it was already active before the crash.

  Finally got through HP through Facebook, and my problem was solved. I discovered that the purchase by a box like best buy store would put me in a group activation key. Because it is the key that has been registered in the BIOS, and I sent the screenshots of my activation which turned bad, they sent me a key and me were resolved with two e-mails and a very favourable CSR FB

• Windows 7 Home Premium x 64: activation of the service Windows Update crashes my computer after upgrade RAM

  A few days ago I had two sticks of 2 GB GSkill RAM by mail. Here's the same brand, model and size as the pair currently installed (obviously). (Sticks alternate according to the specifications of the card from my mother)

  After you have installed the new RAM and the computer starts up, it freezes within about 30 seconds of connection. Before installing the new sticks, I had no problem whatsoever.

  My first thought is that I sit the RAM properly, then I go and reinstall it. I start, and the same thing happens.

  So obviously this RAM must be bad, right? When I take out news, not gel. Ah, but when I remove the OLD stuff and use new instead, I ALSO no gel. So maybe it is not the RAM.

  Then I reboot in safe mode. No gel. Interesting. I opened the window 'System' and it says "memory (RAM) installed: 4.00 GB ', which is correct." I opened CPU - Z, and it reports also 4 GB of memory. I run a few hours and have no problems whatsoever. So I say to myself, there must be either a Windows service or a 3rd party service is causing the issue and not the new RAM.

  I disable all services of 3rd parties and restart in normal mode. It freezes. OK, so maybe (though unlikely) I have a virus any (I say probably not because I have to) run the module additional firefox NoScript, and set to block all flash, javascript, xss, iframes, etc. - in other words, only allow to my whitelist and B) I have Windows Firewall and running McAffee and updated.). But I decided to first try Windows services for the hell of it.

  So I enable only the services that start in safe mode as my reference, disabling the rest via services.msc. I start normally and not gel. Great, then maybe it is a Windows service. I start which allows one service after another without any problem. I get to the bottom of the list and select the Windows Update service. Within literally 10 seconds my computer crashes. Large.

  As a validation test, I put all services back to the base line of safe mode and only allow Windows Update. I start normally, and again once it freezes.

  Another test of validation, I start with all normal, but disable Windows Update. Do not freeze. I'm going to start Windows Update. Yet once, it freezes for about 10 seconds. So clearly something is in place.

  As a third and final sanity check, I remove the new RAM and run a Windows Update. He finds a few optional updates, but not critical. My system is up2date.

  My only attempt to solve this problem so far was to backup all Windows Update DLLs (C:\windows\system32\wu*.dll, although I don't know if these are good) and do a scan sfc to replace them with copies of 'good '. It did not work.

  So my question is:

  Why cares Windows Update that I have 4 GB of memory installed?

  Thank you

  Jon

  1. I 'upgraded' from the RC of Windows 7 x 64 for Win 7 x 64 Home Premium.

  2. I use McAfee VirusScan Enterprise 8.7.0i, DAT version 6060, Scan Engine 5400.1158

  3 No.

  4. No, I put together this computer myself.

  ______________________

  To answer my previous posts:

  I think the USB storage is a separate issue. And.

  I think I * may * have solved the problem of origin with one or more of the following (don't know who):

  • Updated the software of the chipset of the card from my mother.
  • Updated HD Windows audio drivers to the recommended ASUS (Realtek) HD audio drivers
  • Updated since Windows installed NVIDIA display drivers for version NVIDIA WHQL.
  • Increased my tRFC (refresh time of line) to 70 52 clocks clocks. Set my GSKILL DRAM voltage recommended by 2.1V. Off the SPD DRAM configuration (I read that ASUS is not entirely based on the SPD and can affect things on its own).

  I had WU for 20 minutes from writing this post without a freeze, so we'll see. (Previously, it would freeze within 10 seconds of turning on WU)

• Update Windows Vista comes crashing my computer

  Windows Vista today put to update (05/08/09) just crashed my main desktop computer so that all I get is a black screen and automatic troubleshooting help who do not work.  I called my repair shop and they had 5 calls today on this same problem.  Help!  I don't have a $95 to take to the computer repair shop.  I am writing from an old computer.  I run 2 internet radio stations and I need access to the music on this computer.  I'm an artist, and I also need to access the files stored there.    Joyce

  Remove the Vista updates; two ways to do this:

  1. a System Restore to before the updates:

  Click Start > programs > Accessories > system tools > System Restore > restore time/choose your own date > next

  If you use Norton, disable it before using the system restore.

  If it is impossible to enter the Normal Mode, do a Safe Mode system restore:

  Press F8 at the startup/power and the list of startup options, use THE ARROW key to select Safe mode > and then press ENTER.

  System restore steps according to the info above.

  Also:

  2. click on start > right click on computer > properties > Windows updates down the lower left corner > updates installed in the lower left corner in the next window

  > then click the one that you don't want > uninstall will appear at the top > uninstall it.

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  In addition, on the page where you clicked "Installed updates", click on change settings at the top left corner it

  > Change update settings in the next page of AutoUpdate to "check for updates but let me choose etc" > OK ".

  When you take a look at pending updates, you can either download/install them one at the time, namely the update causing you problems.

  > or if you do not need an individual > right-click on > UAC prompt > hide it

  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

  If the above does not work, try to make a Bootable ERD to do a Startup Repair:

  As is the case with most computers/laptops these days, they do not come with good Vista disc to repair only the recovery disks.

  As your grave in the category above, download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

  Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

  At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

  When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

  Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

  http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

  ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

  It's a very good Vista repair disc.

  You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

  There is not a disk of resettlement.

  See you soon.

After about an hour (because he was that much) it was done and was ready to be restarted. so I restart my computer without hesitation because I had already created a restore point. The Blue Screen of Death. so he started to happen... the "loop." no Safe Mode. no last good configuration that worked. No command prompt. none worked. I mean, it's just bad.
