Windows update + Video Driver= BSOD
Hello all,
Computer info-
ASUS EEE PC N450 Intel GMA 3150
1 Gb original Ram
Win 7 Starter OEM
One yr old, not physical damage
What happens-
When attempting to update, BSOD on restart, update fails, goes into startup repair loop
What works-
Boot to safe mode, uninstall Intel GMA 3150 driver (the latest from ASUS)
Restart, continue installing updates in Standard VGA mode, updates complete successfully
Once you reinstall the Vid driver- no problem UNTIL more Windows Updates- then same failure.
One more thing, Windows Update has a Win included update for this driver- has the same ill effect.
I am installing so many updates because wrestled with this problem for some time, until a full reformat was done, to no avail.
So what do I do, stick with 800 x 600 resoultion, or turn off Windows updates?!!!
