Alien Aoura (Windows 7 ultimate issue)

[AlienW3re]

The computer came with 'Windows 7 personal". My friend gave me a windows 7 ultimate key and i used it which then upgraded to ultimate. After that the computer starting to lag probably because of wrong drivers. After that, new automatic updates came, after the upgrade, it started to lag again. My only solution is by system restoring 1-2 days before. Can anyone help me? i

What updates did you install?

 

[Wishmaster]

This last set of updates will cause windows to go through a "tuning & optimization" process.
Mainly for the NetFramework.

During this time, you will notice a consitant CPU use, as well as disk use. it will also cause the system to be slightly sluggish until it finishes.

Mine took just over 2min. on a SSD. Others have reported slightly longer.


The upgrade should not have made any changes to drivers. It may however, take a minute or 2 to make optimizations etc after upgrading on the 1st boot.

That combined with latest updates may be the only issue.
Just give it about 5 minutes.

Do you have any of the optional updates checked?

 

[richc46]

Install one or two at a time. Very often when many are installed at the same time there are problems. Conflicts due to restart.

I agree. Do what rich says.

i selected two and it installed it then it made me restart pc which then installed all upgrades. its slow once agian. for example: when I press ctrl + alt + del, it takes like 30 sec go get there and 30 sec to cancel.
i need to restire again, please help

Do each update one at a time. A restore point should be created after each. Save the .net framework one for last. This will tell you which is causing the slow down. Once the computer slows down after a particular update, do a system restore, then hide that update.

Hi AlienW3re
When you purchased the upgrade to Ultimate why didn't you use the key that was supplied then? Did you download the upgrade or was it a boxed version?

With automatic updating turned on, you don't get the option of only doing updates one at a time. They are downloaded and installed automatically. As the OP says, when he restarted, they all installed.

I've never seen a situation where every available update can't be installed at once (unless explicitly set that way by Microsoft). On XP, Vista, and 7, I've always done every possible update in one go, and never had an issue with it.

This slowdown is related to a recent update, and the computer will sort itself out after a bit. I've already dealt with it on three computers, and it will fix itself.

Windows Updates can, and in my opinion should, be set to ask before downloading and installing any updates. In other words, yes the option is there on all Windows computers. Sometimes updates can cause conflicts, especially when a lot are installed at once. Some people will have issues, and some people won't. Hence my favorite thing to say on here being "Mileage may vary." I've used the method I described above since the days of Windows ME, and it works well.

EDIT: Forgot to mention, when configuring Windows for first use, the option is not presented to set it to ask before downloading updates. It must be set later through control panel.
