Awful Experience Gap

ThrashZone...I can see you're offline. When you're back could you again send a post with (not the clean install) two KB's (3172605 & 3020369)? The link above to your pen drive is no longer working. I believed I had the old Update issues solved but today MS wanted to update 172??? We've had about 2 weeks of terrific electrical storms that knocked out electricity and computers (even with genuine surge (Forza) protection. So something clearly happened to make these updates want to reload. Thanks!

Two issues: 1) I'm being asked again to do all the past MSUpdates. 172 of them. As you likely know from earlier recent posts I had to get a new Win7 Home Premium O/S, a new Toshiba HD and a new EVGA650G2 psu. The install then required all the previous Windows7 updates to be obtained. ThrashZone gave me 3172605 & 3020369 to take care of the problem. His pen drive link apparently no longer contains these but I found them in my download just moments ago. I've copied the .zip files to an unused peripheral drive. This computer (my wife's) wants to associate these zips with PeaZip. I've been told that's not necessary but I now need to know what to do to unzip them in the proper order and to the 'C' drive to mass update all those past updates.

#2- I'm getting hot readings from HWiNFO64...SPECCY...and the BIOS (I think). I'm not very technical. You guys/gals have been terrific at helping me thru this lingering ordeal. Thank you very much!!!

Her computer started snapping off. I inquired about it (ANewman1) for her. Got all sorts of advice but the bottom line was that several of the tests 7Forums had me do and then snippet and send them showed problems with this new PSU...or at least that was what I was told. I was told that if this computer was one of the moderator's, he would shut it down and not start it up again until he replaced the PSU. I've also been told that they've never heard anything but terrific reports for this EVGA SuperNova. So I can't really tell you why it is heating...that's why I'm contacting 7Forums. I've been told this PSU is too large for my wife's home computer which doesn't make sense to me.

Here's some more tests I ran just a couple of hours ago. I'm dealing with a couple of different issues all at the same time and it's hard to keep the ball moving in the right direction. I've got Macrium 'XML Validation Error' on both computers for scheduled backups (since the new Win7 installs) and I don't know why (if) her computer is overheating and caused it to snap off. And finally is the MS Update mess...all the back updates since Win7 and I'm at a loss as to what to do with those 2KB's now that they're zipped and stored on a clean peripheral. MicroSoft in the meantime keeps wanting to give me updates but then locks up on the install of 172 updates. It's a catch-22 for me. If you can address each of these issues, I'll be very thankful.

It's Win7 Home Premium x64. So to be clear...I am able by following the snippet to determine the existence on my wife's system of any (all) of these Bulk Updates? Then if they are present I need to click on (x64) 2605 first and download it. To her 'C' drive? Then do the same for 0369? In that order? After the two are downloaded then I click to open 2605 and when it's done do the same for 0369.

Sorry to be so pressing on understanding all this. I don't want to screw it up.

Thanks much!

My options show differently for my Win7 Home Premium. I'm not given the Manual option. I can tell Windows never to update. I can tell it to simply notify me but do nothing. I can of course tell them to automatically download.

Right now I changed it to the snippet...just notify me. I suppose I could have chosen 'Never' since this should not take a great deal of time??? Anyway thought I'd wait for your reply to my last response and to this post before I try anything.
