  2. some updates were not installed?

    I re-installed XP today and am experiencing the same problem. I have no solution for you other than to manually download all the updates you need, which is what I eventually did. I did some googling but never turned up a solution. I'm hoping it's a problem with windows update and that it will fix itself.

    Big problems with Windows 10 after installation.

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for your interest in Windows 10.

    I understand the inconvenience that you are experiencing. I will definitely assist you.

    This issue may occur due to the outdated display driver or come file are corrupt. For now do not re-install Windows 10, try the below steps and check if it helps resolve the issue.

    Step 1. Update the display driver.

    I would suggest you to update Display driver. Follow the below steps:

    • Press Windows key + X and click on Device manager.
    • Locate for Display Adaptor and expand it.
    • Right click on the adaptor and click on update.
    Step 2. (Unspecified error 0x8000ffff),

    For the issue error 0x8000ffff, I suggest you to check if the Volume Shadow Copy service is running on your computer or not.
    To check for the same follow the steps below:

    • Press Windows key + R, type “services.msc” on the box and hit Enter.
    • Locate for “Volume Shadow Copy” and check if the service is started.
    • If not ‘Start’ the service by right clicking on it.
    If the service was already started, I would suggest you to stop the service and restart the same.

    Hope this helps. If you need further assistance with Windows, let us know and will be glad to help.
