ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 ... how do i get rid of this update box please?Go to http://www.update.microsoft.com/, and when it's initialized click 'Custom'.Find the driver update (Hardware, Optional), then click on the icon next to the update. Check 'Don't show this update again' at the bottom of the expanded text.P.S. if you ever again get a bad driver update (it does happen sometimes), boot into Safe Mode, open the Device Manager, and simply roll back the bad driver.
