    Restarting computer after Windows Update is downloaded/installed results in displays...


    This has happened 3 times now, trying to install this latest update.


    I download/install them via Settings>Windows Update. Windows Update prompts me to restart my computer to complete the updates, so I do, and when It reboots, my displays turn off, but the computer itself is on. I have no other option but to hold down the power button on my computer tower to shut it off. When I turn it back on, It starts but either says "the updates didn't finish installing" or when I go to Windows Update in Settings, It shows the update as available as if it didn't install at all.


    Why does this happen? How am I supposed to update windows?

    :)

  2. Windows 7 Ultimate (64) Security updates not installing.

    ok, here goes for me explaining everything I did.
    quibit, I ran mr. fixit and then went to the second link. after going to the second link and done with it, is said I had 18 updates that were critical to install.
    then jsfitz54, I went to intel and downloaded the update, and the ran mr. fixit again. before I went to restart the computer I checked for updates and the green shield was up saying it was all good.
    So I restarted the computer, while restarting it did not attempt to install any updates. after restarting the computer I had the same no updates except for one about
    Internet explorer 10. I ran that and it failed and now it is saying that I have 18 critical updates to install again. It sounds like to me that they have installed but Windows keeps thinking they aren't. Feel like I am in a whirlpool here. lol
    so when I restarted the computer there were no critical updates needed, do I just go ahead and tell update manager not to display the updates again?

    Windows Update suddenly hangs?

    Windows Update is suddenly hanging for some reason... I went and downloaded and installed the first bunch of updates, restarted when asked, and now when I go back to windows update I just get the window with a white box forever. Reboot and it still does it. This happens to be on my main machine, running windows 7.

    I've also noticed when I reboot it says configuring windows update, step 3 of 3, 47%. Maybe it somehow skipped something and is screwed forever?
