I have noticed about more than half of you in the group
have complaints about the MS Updates.I have had these
problems in the past too. The best way to install the
updates is to install them in small portions 2-3 updates
at a time. DO NOT install SP1 first. Here is how to
successfully install your updates:
1.) Run your scan and then select the Critical updates
and Service packs section.
2) Do NOT install all of them at once Most of your
commercial machines cant handle the load.
3) Select 2-4 critical for download at one time and then
download and install them; and here is what your missing
reboot and DEFRAG every other download.Do NOT mix Updates
4.) After you have completed the critical updates Leave
the SP1 alone!!! Go to the WINDOWS XP section and only
install what is needed for your PC Don't install things
you do not need some of these updates carry a heavy
memory load which the average machine does not have.(slow
PC)Install in 2-4 sections at a time and reboot and
defrag.
5) Go to the driver updates if any and install them 1 at
a time. Drivers tend to load funny when there are more
than one being installed.
6)If you feel you need to install SP1 after all dates are
installed you may do so now. But always select ARCHIVE
the settings it will enable you to uninstall the SP1 if
you see it causes a problem. I Personally have not liked
it so I have left it on Windows Updates By By SP1!
I know this sounds lenghtly but If you follow this
process you wont be on the boards posting you could be
doing something else.
Thanks gang you have helped me before just trying to pay
it forward
