svchost.exe High CPU usage 98% of at least one CPU.

I'd just try installing them.

EDIT: After a reboot.

Will be busy now for an hour or two.

Hi,
Not sure what you mean by delete them first ?
Reset ? I would :)

100% success. All updates completed. Will just wait and see if i get the error message again!
Thank you so much for all your most patient help and encouragement. Won't push it for a while and mark it solved, don't want to tempt fate.

Good job

But it's you and Chris who have done all the hard work, I am but the P.I.C.N.I.C. participant. Many thanks to you.

Hi,
No problem although there was an update to the source that added a known issue
Tied to a bitlocker update that caused a little fuss a while back so as long as bluetooth is not important :)

Known issues in this update

• Issue 1
  
  Symptom
  After you install KB 3133977, the software for Intel Bluetooth devices may not be fully functional because of existing software issues in the Intel Bluetooth driver software. These issues may affect Bluetooth keyboards, mice, audio streaming devices, and voice headsets. You may also not be able to pair new Bluetooth devices. Intel is currently working on an update to address their software incompatibilities.
  
  Workaround
  If you require Intel Bluetooth support on Windows 7 before the revised software is available, the only known workaround at this time is to uninstall this update temporarily and then reinstall it after Intel has updated their software.

Thanks for that. I don't use Bluetooth at all but it might be useful for others who have been following this thread!

Have had no problems since my last post so think I can now mark this a resolved. many thanks to all who participated.
