I have heard many friends say that they fear the updates.
I personally have never seen this happen, at least in the last year or so. I do remember back in the NT4.0 days with service packs toasting machines but I think Microsoft has done a pretty good job lately.
So you are toast if you do toast if you don't? I guess to me I would wan't to know about the updates but for the majority I think it is just better if it does it without saying a word. |

| I definetely agree with that. my system was just hosed up by a linksys driver, that was some how downloaded to my system. I use a wireless nic to access the net, and I would lose my connection every 5-15 minutes. I finally had todo some detective work, goto the linksys site, and download the old drivers. windows update is a great thing, but all updates should be closely screened before downloaded. -- Custom 1000 mhz. AMD Athalon with 512 mb. Ram. weird geforce 2 video card ram fluctuates from 16-64 mb. 30 gb. hard drive. 8x dvd-rom/cd-rw drive. 56x Cd-Rom wireless linksys nic. 17 in. monitor. and to top it off a soundblaster live sound card! |
