Has anyone had problems that have popped out of nowhere with windows 7? Ive have a brand new Dell studio xps laptop for like 3 months now.. It seems windows update can screw up things that are already working fine...
The first time i just happened to notice windows doing an update and didnt think much of it. The computer prompted me that it had to do a restart,so i let it.. Well when the puter restarted all but 2 of my icons were gone
Im like wtf? So i restart the puter again and still same thing...So i then go into system restore and restore it to a date before the update and everything is back to normal..The computer immediately does the update again only this time it works as it should....
Today i get on my puter all is well until i click a link to a youtube vid...Everything starts up thumbnails come up but no video i wait and wait ,try to refresh then i get the spinning blue ring...Wait longer and finally try to close the tab,well now nothing i click on firefox works,but everything else does...so i close it out try again but on a different site and get the same thing
Im thinking problem with firefox so i try internet exploder,it starts workin video starts to play then freezes and the same $hit happens
I rack my brain and then i think lemme check system restore ,and as sure as the sky is blue there it is my puter did a "critical update" Yesterday...I restore it back to before the update and what do ya know everythings working again
Anyone else have these probs? If so system restore is your friend!!!!
