Windows 10: Cumulative Update KB3081424 for Windows 10 August 5th

No issues here as well. Will test battery life tomorrow. Hopefully there is an improvement.

 

The update actually requires a restart in order for the install to complete and changes to take effect. You can choose not to install the update but I'm not so sure that's a good idea either so...

 

IDK, maybe it is Comcast, but live tv streaming is blurry and not high quality after this update. Anybody else see any such effect?

 

My AMD Cool N Quiet works a lot better after the update. Before the CPU stayed near the maximum speed most of the time, now most of the time it stay at the minimum speed.

 

I've had this come up several times while overclocking, I believe it's a driver crash. I would reset the BIOS to optimized defaults (manual memory times maybe necessary for some) and see if they can get into Windows. Once into Windows they should be able to go back and find a stable overclock/bios settings.

Here's a little something I found on the issue.

 

Well, I'm pretty severely overclocked (Intel 5820K @ 4.58GHZ / DDR4-3258) and had no problems. But if your OC is not well and stable, that could be a problem.

 

is there another place to download this KB3081424 from, other then windows update., sorry my first post and just asking.

 

only my 3rd post. sorry to be a pain in the ass

 

Overclock or not, it's always a good idea to load optimized defaults with new hardware or an OS, to allow the bios to calibrate to your system. More than likely you can load your original overclock without issue, but you still want it to load at least the once on optimized defaults.

 

Pages loading faster than before the update, Programs also load very quickly, I use IE11 for browsing.

 

I agree about the hardware changes, but the BIOS has no clue about your OS, other than the boot drive. If your OC is stable, the software will run. Problem is some don't really test their OC with adequate stress and memory testing.

 

Links for the download is in post number 54, page 6 of this thread.

 

Never heard that one before, and I've been building since 98. I've never had to load "Optimized Defaults" in the BIOS when upgrading to a new OS, even doing a clean install. The only time I load optimized defaults in the BIOS is when I build a new system, replace the CPU or RAM. Also if I'm overclocking and have stability issues.

Outside of those I find no need to go into the BIOS and load optimized defaults. In fact, I'm not sure most here would do that just for an OS upgrade/clean install *Huh

But hey, it's your system *Smile

 

See if this helps
