So I let my laptop do it's standard updating -- you know, the one where you can postpone for up to four hours? So it got to 15%, screen went black but I figured it went to sleep so I hit moved over the mousepad, nothing. I hit the power button, nothing. So I figured it turned off and turned it back on, got the black screen that would let me do Safe Mode and was really confused. When I finally logged on, I got this message: &quotWindows did not pass genuine validation. Security Essentials will become disabled in 30 days if you do not resolve this issue.&quot I went to Computer and found my Product ID but that didn't work. I literally couldn't type in the first nu…

I did the update when it first came and it totally wrecked my system files would be corrupt when downloaded and other weird glitches. I restored to a previous restore point and the system worked fine again. I did all the other updates other than bing desktop and MSE KB2804527 update, and the system continues to be fine. I wiped out all system restore points, so I did not have to deal with the bad restore points, and created a new point. I tried the update again today and again it hosed the system. I restored to my manual restore point and system was fine again. So it is clearly KB2804527 breaks something when I try to install it I have no idea what to do at this point. …

I installed the update and restarted my computer as instructed but when my computer rebooted and I tried to use the copy/paste function in Microsoft Word 2010 the application would not allow it and would give the error message "that selection is incorrect" or something like that.

I'm having major problems with windows update, I have reported the problem to 'support' who have failed to resolve the issue, even though support were in control of my system for over 2 hours, most of that time was total inactivity. The level 1 technician (Shen) was very helpful and spent 30 mins or so trying to fix the problem, she then had to hand the problem over to a level 2 technician (Eldrik) who over the next hour and a half barely spent 10 minutes 'fixing' the problem. After seeing no activity for over 30 mins I asked if anyone was actually working on the problem and was abruptly disconnected. My initial problem was that windows update kept installing the sam…

Hello, For over a week now my computer have been blue-screening and crashing on an extremely frequent (unpredictable) basis with the only error message "SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION". I am beyond frustrated, since I've researched countless forums and solutions to no resolve. Clearly, I am not the only one experiencing this on the Windows 8 operating system, and am wondering if this is a bug with the software, in which case, I'd expect an update from Microsoft. It is extremely frustrating to have your computer crash for no apparent reason while working on important documents. Please help!! Sincerely, A frustrated customer. View this thread
