    finished automatic update this morning - now BSOD


    Lenovo G 570 laptop running Win 7 Home Premium SP1 normally for about a year.will not start after recent update. A BSOD flashes on for fraction of a second, too fast to read error code. Computer will not start normally or in safe mode.
    I don't have a restore point or image. Please don't beat me up for that, I too am amazed that I didn't set it up. It is what it is.
    I do, however have the original install disk.
    I tried selecting upgrade when booted to the install disk, but it won't let me upgrade unless Win 7 has booted normally.
    This looks exactly like the update-caused error from last year(?) that messed up so many computers including 3 of mine.

    There have been very few (i.e. none that I know of here) reports of this behaviour with this month's updates - until yours.

    Have you tried using Startup repair from the Repair My Computer option in the Advanced Boot Menu?

    Have you tried using Last Known Good Configuration from the Advanced Boot Menu?

    Seems KB3045999 is responsible and have a look at the link below for some ideas to return the system to normal and some there and other sites claim it's due to pirated systems but only seem to effect x64 installations (It's originally in Russian)

    Not a piracy issue. I have an original copy of Wn 7 and i got the same error

    See BSOD Application Error for help

    first my apologies for letting this post go so long without reply. The troublesome machine was not my only computer so I just used others. But the troublesome computer has accumulated software that I would like to use, which means solving this issue.
    I tried to follow the discussion noted that was translated from Russian, but I was unable to comprehend what to do.
    I have the installation disk. I wish I could do a non-destructive re-install, but the instructions seem to start from a Windows that is running.
    I might be able to follow removing an update from command prompt from the system Recovery Options. I am looking at the Windows directory, it seems to be the right place to start.
    This is a Lenovo G570, Intel, Windows 7 Home Premium.

    Please boot to Safe Mode, and copy the following files to the desktop:
    C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs\Appliication.evtx
    C:\Windows\System32\winevt\Logs\System.evtx

    Compress the copies, and upload them to your reply

    What about Safe Mode with Command Prompt?
    Have you run Startup Repair (3 times in succession)?

    I have now run Start Up Repair 3 times in sucession, no change.
    Safe mode pops the BSOD for an instant then starts the Start Up Repair module. Safe Mode with Command Prompt does the same.
