New XP Updates..a cautionary tale


Recommended Posts

Just done the XP V4 update for Athlon processors last night .......My computer would not reboot until after 3 restarts....soundcard dissapeared....clock reset to 1999 ,and after manual resetting still will not synchronise with the atomic clock in Boulder..............

Did a system restore to last week.......seems to have cleared most of the problems (after thinking I had pulled a lead out of my surround sound......bloody wirings a pig at the back of my two pcs...so it took a while ,before I twigged the problem was the MS recommended update )

Its still not quite right ......strange beeping noises at boot coming from the motherboard..before full startup........Did it flash my motherboard....guess it must have if its a cpu update.......not sure how to change it back...as its before XP comes on..........ooooeeerr .......
