Administrators AWS Posted April 17, 2013 Administrators Posted April 17, 2013 Okay so there were the updates on the 9th and 10th of April. On the 10th, the following were installed: KB915597, KB2813170, KB2799926, KB2817183, KB2760406, KB982726, KB2823324, KB2808735, KB890830, KB2813347. I've heard in my morning's searching that the one in bold has been causing issues and am looking to install that today if I need to. The updates for the ninth, titled "Internet Explorer 10 for Windows 7 for x64bit systems", was for whatever reason only installed last night (17th). That apparently included all the ones listed for the ninth, and, according to Installed Updates: Microsoft Windows English Hyphenation Package, Microsoft Windows English Spelling Package, Windows Internet Explorer 10, and security updates KB2586448, KB2559049 and KB2530548. After this update, the computer was turned on again for use. I've just been told that directly after, it did what happened below IN ADDITION to icons flickering upon logging into user accounts. The following happened last night right after the update to someone else (it was described to me), but what I wrote below is what I experienced this morning. It booted as normal, but when on the user login screen (the blue one with icons), well the login screen itself took far longer to show up than normal. Upon logging into a user account, that also takes much longer than usual (30 seconds up to 2 minutes by estimate) to finish. The 'Welcome' transition with the loading icon will stay there for longer than normal, and then at the point it would give way to the regular desktop, the screen remained black. The only visible thing was the cursor. The screen remained black until I pressed Esc, at which point all resumed as normal. From this point it operated normally. It's still operating normally, as if nothing's amiss. My computer is Windows 7 64 bit. It's new -- custom built by a computer store in February 2012, and so 14 months old. With 8 gigs of Ram any slowdown is very noticeable. I figured before I went uninstalling any updates (I haven't uninstalled any before, and this computer isn't fully backed up yet because we can't yet afford the storage media OR cloud storage), I would ask what may be causing this issue, or which update specifically. I need help quickly, because I'm worried about what might happen next time I log off. I think I may go ahead and uninstall KB2823324 immediately, come to think of it. Please, I need some answers.
