• Windows Update causing various problem on the computer

  Original title: bad update?

  11/10, I downloaded and installed updates Vista KB2641690, KB2492386, KB972971644, KB2505189. There is more, but this format makes it very difficult to enumerate. My computer is now constantly lock up, and various closed functions (Explorer being the worst).

  My computer works horribly since the update. Is there a way to reverse the updates, or should I use a fixed disc and just pray that I don't have reinstall?

• WIn Vista for 13/12/11 updates cause startup problem

  Hello

  There was some 16 published "Windows Updates" yesterday.   After applying my Vista system would not restart until they have been regularized.

  I don't know which one caused the problem.   I guess I could let the updates from the Office product be applied again to try to limit the update at the origin of the problem.

  But do you know what is wrong?

  Hi LarryMcMahon,

  Download the latest driver chipset directly from the manufacturer. If Windows was preinstalled on your computer, you can find the driver on the website of the manufacturer of the computer.

• Windows update caused catastrophic hdd failure?

  I installed the update of windows the other day to return to find the catastrophic hard drive failure. I've never had problems with this computer before. I wonder if anyone has had similar problems. I lost a lot of work, the photos that I'm never going back.

  Is it possible that windows update caused this hard drive failure?

  Hello

  Windows updates won't cause failure catastrophic hdd. In addition, I would like to let you know that hard drives are mechanical devices with moving parts, so they are subject to wear and tear expected. It may possibly do not mechanically at a given time. However, most of the manufacturers branded their product with an average (usually supplied by total number of operating hours). But if a part is defective or there is some manufacturing defects, service life of the drive, a bit more in as little as a day.

  Other factors are primarily external in nature. Mounted sudden power can cause a drive failure, as can cause fire or damage, as well as a number of computer viruses of water. Exposure to high levels of magnetism can disrupt the classic functions of a player, as well as net impacts. If dust gets in a car, it can become a catalyst for an eventual failure.

  Thank you.

• 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).

• "Laserjet 1022n Windows Update", causing problems printing: print jobs do not print

  Hello

  A few days ago I installed upgrading Windows Laserjet 1022n on my Windows 7 64 bit and since then I can not print a page normally: the page does not print. I use a TCP/IP network port.

  I made several attempts to resolve this problem:

  -uninstall the printer driver and install it again (I tried the latest version on the HP site and an older one that worked perfectly before)

  -update the firmware of the printer to the latest version on the HP site.

  When I put the printer in pause and start the print job, you can see in the list. Resumption of the printer, printing starts on the printer but you see that the job remains in the list, flashes again and again. The printer keeps printing the same page.

  I don't know what I can do to solve this problem. There is no way to uninstall the update of the HP Laserjet 1022n software because it does not appear in the list of installed programs (course list is also op updates from windows updates).

  I have same problem printing to the same printer from another PC Windows 7 (with the same windows update done)

  But I have no problem printing with my laptop on an other network printers.

  Is there someone who has the same problem and how to solve?

  Thank you for answer

  I found the solution on this site: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/59912-29-1022n-printer-stop-printing

  Just uncheck the chekbox "enable two-way communication" on the "Ports" tab of the properties of the printer and it works normally again!

• Windows Update Causes Massive screw-up system. Help!

  Hello world!

  I need help desperately. I use a HP Slimline desktop running Vista. I've recently updated (last Tuesday or more) using UPDATES AUTOMATIC - and my computer everything is SCREWED now.

  Essentially - I installed the update as part of the shutdown process, as I normally would. But restart my computer, it gets regarding the screen before the log-in (when he has this loading bar bit and the rest of the screen is black). Momentarily, one of two things happens:

  1. blue screen of death. The computer turns off, tells me to reboot and try to restart in Mode without failure.

  2. Startup Repair launches. I ran the diagnostic tool, but it has not detected any problem.

  So pretty much the problem is that WINDOWS WILL NOT BOOT. In the Startup Repair, it tells me there is no problem with anything - but it also TELLS me THAT SYSTEM RESTORE has BEEN STOP on my computer. I do not disable this feature!

  I have all my files stored on my external hard drive - however, my computer does not recognize this drive. My wireless internet, which is usually given if my computer is turned on or not, also does not work.

  I'm totally screwed? I mean, I've never used to before startup repair and it is confusing, mostly because I do not know why the system restore does not work. I CANNOT LAUNCH MODE without FAILURE or any other useful tips from Windows.

  What can I do? Help, please.

  the computer had McAfee installed as a trial when I bought it. Have since renewed - subscription is up to date, and no problems have been associated with him other than he identify some of my updates of windows as spyware.

  1 applications McAfee (and Norton) are known to not not upgrade (or uninstalling) itself. Even on the assumption that you have purchased a subscription before the free trial period has expired, there is a good chance that "remnants" of the trial caused the version purchased, renewed not to install and work properly.

  2. the fact that the application of McAfee is supposed to be identify legitimate (assumed) updates to Windows as"spyware" is certainly the evidence to me that the application of McAfee was not "works" and therefore led to the infection of W32/Alureon rootkit you are dealing with now.

  To be clear as possible, your problems are not due to the installed KB977165 itself, they are due the KB977165 have installed on an already infected computer. [1]

  That being said, I wouldn't bother a support of opening incident now. Follow these steps, instead:

  Looks more like a hardware or a hardware driver issue.

  I do not remember what, if any, of what you can do in mode safe - but give it a shot.  Even some parts, that you did before.

  Search for malware:

  Download, install, execute, update and perform analyses complete system with the two following applications:

  • MalwareBytes (FREE)
  • SuperAntiSpyware (FREE)

  Remove anything they find.  Reboot when necessary.  (You can uninstall one or both when finished.)

  Search online with eSet Online Scanner.

  The less you have to run all the time, most things you want to run will perform:

  Use Autoruns to understand this all starts when your computer's / when you log in.  Look for whatever it is you do not know using Google (or ask here.)  You can hopefully figure out if there are things from when your computer does (or connect) you don't not need and then configure them (through their own built-in mechanisms is the preferred method) so they do not - start using your resources without reason.

  You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory.  This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

• Windows Update causes freeze/Crash

  The latest version of windows (25 August) crashed my laptop under Vista and now it only works in safe mode. If I reset it to 20:00 on August 24, it works fine, then it executes the same update process and crashes again (3 times now) and now I am in safe mode. What is going on? How I have difficulty / stop?

  Hello

  Set Windows Update to download but not install updates. You can then use a process of elimination
  to see who is causing the problem. Sometimes just install them one at a time solves the problem.

  I hope this helps.
