Mistwalker 3 Posted August 14, 2013 Report Share Posted August 14, 2013 Just another result of Microsuck using it's customers as beta testers for a couple of years before finally getting their products fit for purpose....... bless their cotton socks. Link to post Share on other sites
dogtrack 346 Posted August 15, 2013 Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't that refer to a Patch back in April ? Microsoft Urges Windows 7 Users to Uninstall 'Blue Screen of Death' Patch Microsoft today urged Windows 7 users to uninstall a patch shipped earlier this week that has crashed customer's PCs and crippled the machines with endless reboots.

allardjd 1,853 Posted August 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2013 I don't know any more about it but what's in the article I linked. John EDIT: Well, what do you know - I just checked the article and it's got an April 12th date on it that I never noticed. It popped up on one of the news sites I follow today and I just figured it must be current. It must have been a slow news day. JDA Link to post Share on other sites
MartinW 0 Posted August 24, 2013 Report Share Posted August 24, 2013 this is not the first time this has happened in recent months, if you p.c. is working well now, disable updates!! Disable Windows Updates if you like, but check every few weeks for the latest. Not installing critical Windows updates is madness. Recipe for disaster. Optional updates are a different story. We shouldn't condemn Microsoft, operating systems are VERY complex. There are bound to be the occasional issues. Link to post Share on other sites
