  1. Windows Update is Hanging on Startup Again...


    This is the second update in a row where the standard automatic Windows Update on my desktop machine is hanging after restarting.The messages seem to indicate that update is 100% Complete, but then the system freezes and I never get to a login screen. I have tried to allow the current Windows Update to do its thing three times. And three times in a row it hangs with a message on the screen that says Updates are 100% complete. I end up restarting the machine manually, which backs out all the updates and then allows me to login, only to repeat the same process 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?
