    2004 still updating on my computer for weeks


    First time ever for having an update problem.

    Downloaded the 2004 on my 64 bit Gateway with no problems at all and fairly quickly also.

    Downloaded to my 32 bit HP both are desktops and started great but now stuck on the lock screen page with no mouse or keyboard and from the power light intervals, it seems to be still installing. I have tried all the usual restart protocols disconnecting modem etc. but to no effect.

    This has been going on for weeks.

    Do I keep waiting to see what happens or what?

    :)

  2. Disable installation of Feature Update 2004

    About 2 weeks ago, version 2004 showed up on the Updates list and automatically installed. Upon completion of the install, the computer was completely unusable: no application would load; those that started would hang and eventually (5 minutes) fail. To
    attempt to remove the update, I had to force a power off (mirrored drives really don't like that!) and then was finally able to use to Recovery under Updates to remove about 95% of the update. After the require restart and while checking what was or was not
    working, Updates (of course) reinstalled 2004. Repeat: Recovery and Remove 95% (95% of 95% = 90% Usable). Attempting to use MS questions area, the only suggestion was to Disable the Updates Service which, of course, means no further security or usability
    patches.

    All of that overly long explanation is by way of saying: I have attempted the only other option given here for removing 2004. At the moment, the Update Service is Disabled (PS: if you leave it at Manual, it will eventually start up and 2004 will commence
    its installation). So, the question: is there ANY way to disable the attempt by Update Service to install version 2004? I don't mean "install and wait for a couple of patches", I mean permanent tell Windows to NOT attempt to install 2004? My computer works
    just fine without the feature updates and does not work AT ALL *with* the updates. Prior versions and other patches allow for the update to be Hidden and ignored; Feature Update 2004 will install if the service is running and there appears to be no way to
    abort/hide/ignore the update.

    Any suggestions??
