Check out this forum regarding the ongoing problem with KB925902 update
»www.tabletquestions.com/windows-···led.html
I have not seen any major issue reported about the update so it most be isolated to certain software configuration. Usual, if their was a major problem with the Microsoft update, I would see a lot of news articles about the subject in my in-box.
Nothing else to report, but that could change.

Normally I wait a few days when ever MS sends out their critical updates. Usually cause I dont feel like restarting my computer.
But last night I was shutting down to do some maintenence and abescentmindedly pressed enter at the shutdown screen when selected was the "Install updates and shutdown" (since I disabled autoinstall).
So we shall see if I have a computer when I get back after work/class.

Re: glad I didn't install that one...
I do not believe that this should be a "usual" problem for people. I've already had to deal with this myself this morning. Not fun. In some cases, it was resolved with a patched driver for audio...
In any case, I doubt this would've been "news worthy" if it weren't truly causing so much trouble. |

After installing the latest windows updates 2 days ago, my p5b-e refused to boot. It looked to be a corrupted bios, and since the p5b-e doesn't have a removable bios chip, I had to send it back to asus).
I hope asus sends m$ the bill. |

Re: Dang...
I installed the update last night.
After reboot I got an error about an OCX file being incorrect and to contact the vendor.
Did a Google search and the file was part of ActiveX so the vendor was MS.
Tried a different tack, went into Add/remove programs, showed all updates and clicked on the link to the MS Security Bulletin for the update.
It mentioned exactly the error I was seeing and mentioned there was a known issue with systems with Realtek drivers.
I have an HP Pavilion with just that setup.
Clicked on the link in the security bulletin to get another download to fix the problem.
Downloaded that file and rebooted.
Problem solved. |

I also had no problem with the patch, and am an AVG user. Although I pay for the professional version. |

Ah the thrill of not having to worry about it. Seems like Vista blows worse than XP did when first released. I'll stick to my Linux and Windows 2000 |
