:In my case I wouldn't be effected to badly, while I don't use system restore which is actually quite worthless against real problems, I make semi-frequent images of my operating system partition while keeping additional information/applications on other partitions. So if an uninstall doesn't work I can always go back.
I've only encountered two bad updates, one messed up my desktop, and icons on Win98se, it was a local exploit so it would have to be on my system to effect me so I was not worried, and another on XP, when Microsoft first released bluetooth drivers for XP they were actually the beta drivers being developed in XP SP2, so Microsoft was giving beta drivers out with their bluetooth hardware people actually paid for. When SP2 came out I did a clean install with a slipstreamed SP2, and the new drivers were much better. The real issue was they didn't let you know they were beta drivers, but I also became part of the XP SP2 beta testing so I figured it out real quick...
Lol sounds like a ooopsy to me. Ati shipped out their radeon 9200 with beta 4.1 cat drivers lol. Nvidia did the same with i thing the 5500 t one point forget the brand of the nvidia card now. I just know this sort of beta driver v real driver happens now and then compleatly by accident. I know it was a accident with ati for sure because the beta they shipped for that shipment included a beta tester only utility for drivers
