Windows 10: What has happened with microsoft and there monthly CU's???

We are rapidly running out of patience with Microsoft and are seriously looking at moving to an alternative. Since September last year we have been having serious issues every month with installing their monthly CU's with multiple laptops failing to install, not only that, but once they have failed a particular CU then they fail to install any subsequent CU but will install other updates such as .NET.Last month we had a total of 92 laptops fail May's update. We have been working with MS support who have been next to hopeless, only prepared to work on one device per ticket including when you tr

Black Screen in FireFox after the CU

Hey

Using FF 54 x64, Win 10 with CU.

This is a problem which started after the CU installed. I get a black screen in FireFox, intermittent but a regular occurrence. I have tried the usual steps to renew the browser, safe mode, etc., with no success. A part of the browser screen goes black,
then the entire screen. The frame remains, with menu items, and the browser can change sites, the curser is active, etc., but there are no graphics. Launching another Tab or window gives a white page which then instantly disappears leaving the black screen
inside the frame. Closing and reopening the browser corrects the problem. Disengaging hardware acceleration is a work around but unsatisfactory as the browser needs HA.

The event does not happen with IE 11.

I am posting here because many CU users have this problem .See

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.c ... 163440#c70

That case was reopened and all are using windows 10 CU.

Windows 10 event viewer says that "the display driver stopped responding and has successfully recovered" listing event ID 4101.The posted solution on Windows forums

"Display driver stopped responding and has recovered" error in Windows 7 or Windows Vista - Microsoft Support

is to increase a delay in the display driver timing but that does not improve the browser graphics. This is an old problem with no solution on the NVIDIA forum. I have of course changed drivers.

We are hoping Windows will correct the problem and has the solution.

 

Windows 10 CU Issues

I am no longer running the Creators Update so I can not do any further testing. I posted this issue in the hopes of possibly determining the issue before I give the CU Upgrade another try.
