Default Problem with Update 816093


If you have a restore point made before installing the

update, go back
to it.

I see no problem here with that one: but I am trying to

trace down some
weird memory behaviour patterns that may associate with

its predecessor
- Q 810030. So I would be interested in any results you

can describe.
If you look in Task Manager, do processes appear to show

abnormal
amounts of memory in use (eg 66MB for explorer.exe, or

90MB or more over
all instances of svchost.exe)?

Hi Alex!

No, no unusual memory usage...nothing over 25 MB....

The rebooting problem seems to be related to Zone Alarm's
Vector Engine files being corrupt...working on that
now....but i still believe the Update is causing the slow
performance and memory error i'm getting...

As for going back to a restore point, i don't know if that
will rectify the situation...restore won't remove the
update...which is my train of thought for the moment...but
i can't find it's install...in either add/remove or in
Norton clean sweep..

i see that someone else is experiencing a conflict with
this update, but it deals with sound....i'll be peaking in
on their progress...

GAAAAAAAH!.....

OK,...system restore didn't fix it....so i called up
Microsoft and they suggested i run Windows
repair....After the repair was done half my desktop icons
were missing, as well as 2/3 of my icons in the program
task bar...

the fix reolved the memory issue but it dumped a lot of
my settings....my internet connections were all erased,
but luckily all mt files are still there....

so, now i'm stuck with the task of fixing bugs from the
fix....oh, and upon one of my reboots i got a blue
screen..stop error "0X00000048"...which Microsoft says
may be a driver issue...but i see no conflicts in my
system control panel...

this is insane...i may end up having to reload my whole
system...
how could they send out an update that causes so many
issues?...i understand that it is causing them in other
OS's as well...
