    Windows sounds are delayed 5-10 seconds after massive updates on 10-14


    On 10-14-14 there were 20 update files to load to my Win 7 64-bit system. Of those 20 updates, two (KB3001652 - Update for Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime and KB2952664 - Update for Windows x64) failed to install. I have tried to re-install those but they still fail.

    After this massive update, any Windows sounds (signon after loading, exclamation, etc) are always 5-10 seconds in sounding after the event that makes it happen.

    I've run sfc /scannow and 'repair' from the installation disc (no errors found). I have no issues with sounds from games or applications like Windows Media Player, just the system sounds.

    This may sound like a minor problem, and it probably is, but shortly after this massive update, I started having random display driver errors: 'EventID 4101 nvlddmkm display driver stopped responding and has recovered'. This error occurs sometime during every game I play (Shadow of Mordor, Far Cry 4, Dragon Age: Inquisition, Skyrim, ESO, WildStar, etc and it's never happened before this update).

    I loaded back versions of my display driver (clean install on every one) and it's happened on every one going back to drivers released the first of the year. I used MemTest (no memory problems) Prime95 (no CPU problems) and FurMark (no graphics card problems).

    I don't know if the two are related but would like someone's input, if they would be so kind.

    Please follow the Windows Update Posting Instructions and post the requested data

    If the file is too large (8MB compressed), remove the older CBSPersist cab files until the final file is below the limit - you can always post them separately after zipping them. (the forum doesn't allow the upload of bare CAB files, for a number of reasons)
