Administrators AWS Posted March 16, 2013 Administrators Posted March 16, 2013 So I'm having trouble with the automatic 'configuring windows' screen just like everyone else.Computer is 1 week old. Windows 8 64bit. Turned the computer on Thursday and the auto config started....hung at 15%.....and finally after 90 minutes rebooted.Spent 30 minutes chatting with a microsoft 'representative' who was completely useless. Told me NOTHING. Then, sent me a link that was supposed to help but the link was to the microsoft windows 8 home page. F'ing useless.Started this morning, same thing.confirmed that i had the latest version of anti virus software.Uninstalled both audio/video drivers tried to run delmigprov.exe.tried to manually KB2756872 but says it is already installed.What now????? I spent 800.00 for a computer that is loaded with software microsoft knows if flawed?????? If anyone has any other suggestions, let me know. But, I am not a programer so it must be 'dummed down' for me. Thank god my little lap top works so I can communicate with the outside world....Thanks in advance for listening to me rant.Update: Windows found 5 more updates for me. Tried to load and after 10 minutes 3 loaded and 2 did not. Found this on a board for one of themWas having the same problem with KB2770917. Just found a solution that worked. Hit windows key + R to open Run command. Type in msconfig.exe and hit entergo to the Services tab on the topCheck the box on the bottom that says hide all microsoft services Click Disable allRestart the computerInstall updateAfter installation follow the same instructions but click enable all instead of disable all and restart again and everything should be good. Hopefully it works for others. I tried it and it was successful, rebooted, and it ran a windows update again but this time faster. Still haven't reinstalled my sound drivers.Will try and reinstall and see what happens. I still hate Windows 8.********* View this thread
