Thanks, so they've start fixing their fixes...

Every now and then I run into an update which won't install automatically on my Win7-64.

In most cases, it helps when I download the update files manually from following the update-error-messages, it must be soms 64bit/access-authority thing. In rare cases, the update won't install manually either, then I check the ignore option. After soms time MS issues a new fix, including the older issues, which does install.

BTW/1 I never let Windows install updates automatically by itself, it only might do so at my command. Some updates are interfering with Poser use, or with Poser overnight render jobs (performing a system restart and alike...)

BTW/2 Automatic updates on the Vista-32 machine run fine, though. That is, recent ones seem to generate conflicts with the - latest but old - nvidia driver for the Ti560GS card, causing BSOD at startup. I had to shut down the driver completely to handle that. According to the net, the issue appears for all versions of that 560 driver. So be informed.

all the best...

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.

visit www.aRtBeeWeb.nl (works) or Missing Manuals (tutorials & reviews) - both need an update though
