After everything is download and installed computer restarts but instead of displaying anything it only flickers two differents kind of black. It looks similar to problem described on nvidia website http://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/3170

(I have samsung r780 with nvidia 330m) I thus tried solution from the site but it didn't work. I've also tried and removed all drives for the graphic card and rolled back system driver (in safe mode!) and then tried to update with the same result - flickering

screen. In addition to that I disabled automatic driver update/installation but after windows stars it install default driver for the graphic card. The only solution after the flickering occurs is to restore last good configuration.

 

How can I get back working Windows Update?! (preferably without refreshing/reinstalling whole OS as I will probably stick with not working WU than having to reinstall whole OS)

 

PS. The same thing happend when I first installed windows and tried WU with relatively fresh installation (about January, week after the install).
