ok i have tried system restore but the only save point there is is before the updates i did yesterday and updated my specs
And why is only one restore point shown? What have you done? There should be several.
In any case, use that restore point.
After that restore point, then use this procedure to update your Win 7. Incidentally, after following the procedure update your system specs by adding SP1 to the info about your Win 7.
UPDATING YOUR WIN 7
ASSURE THAT YOU RECEIVE ALL UPDATES
WIN | type
WINDOWS UPDATE | ENTER |
Change settings (left-hand column)
|
checkmark all four of the boxes | OK button
Approve any dialog boxes presented. Let Windows install any update features.
WIN is the key with the Microsoft flag on top.
INSTALL CRITICAL UPDATES
Check for Updates (left-hand column)
Install
ALL critical updates.
Restart your computer (even if not prompted)
Repeat this procedure until there are no more critical updates.
DO NOT TRUST the “Windows is up to date” in center of dialog. until you see that
TWICE IN A ROW!
INSTALL IMPORTANT UPDATES
Use the “critical update” procedure until all important updates are installed.
INSTALL OPTIONAL UPDATES
Use the “critical update” procedure until all optional updates are installed.
Under Optional updates you will be presented with a list of about 34 language updates.
You can hide those updates so that aren't continually notified of those updates. When you click on 34 optional updates are available, then you
a) highlight all of the language updates,
b) right-click anywhere in the highlighted list.
c) click on Hide Updates,
d) OK button.
UPDATE GOLDEN RULES
Install
ALL, yes,
ALL updates.
This is Win 7 and not Vista or XP (eXPired).
UPDATE IS HUNG –TAKING FOREVER
Hung is very doubtful unless you interrupted updates.
CTRL + SHIFT + ESC key combo will pop-up the Task Manager.
Lo and behold, Windows Update is still running!
You hold down the CTRL and SHIFT keys.
While holding them down, tap the ESC key once.
