Howdy Boggin,

Been away most of yesterday so that is why I am late responding.  Back now.

I am confused about these two important updates also.  When I click where you said, I get info that they are for MS Office 2010 which I do not have.  I will use your suggestion to hide these.

Those were "important" but not for me as I do not have Office 2010.  they are still listed as important even though I have hidden them. 

The only ones left are AMD for display - but I am afraid of this as I had so many problems getting these AMD W7000 cards to work properly.

Based on what I told you I heard long ago from Shawn:  I guess that the other updates in picture below (not marked important) can be ignored.  Is that correct?

Well, I do not understand about the admin command prompt.  I am operating machine as admin with name of Morgan Pierce Parker.

So, are there any final diagnostics that I should apply to be sure that I have gotten all corruption from machine?

Do you have any idea what "we" did to fix things and what was the cause of this original BSOD from last Summer?

Thanks, again, Boggin.

102
OK, Boggin, I hope I am not speaking too soon, but I believe that we are close to the end of this nightmare.

Except for the MS Office 10, it seems all of the important updates are applied; and, I believe I mentioned that I do not have MS Office 10; instead I have 03 and 13.

I did do the disk cleanup and that got rid of some stuff.

I un-installed MS Essentials and are about to install Avast.  If I remember you use only free version of MalwareBytes.  anything else?

There are optional updates (posted below) and I am unsure of these; I remember Shane once saying long ago:  "If it is not marked important, skip it.

So, is that still the right guidance?

After all of these, I am at a loss to figure out exactly what was done to "fix" my machine and exactly what was wrong with it.  Do you know?

Is there anything else to check for in case there is still some unknown lurking problem?  Any further diagnostics to run?

103
CLOCK:  That was about printing the time before and after the command that id not work (so you could see the time.

OK, so you are saying that MS Security Essentials is not essential and never be installed?  I used Programs and Features to uninstall last time.

Essential or important updates were always installed until the BSOD problem when I began this case last Summer.

I have none except some kind of Malware Bytes thing that Satchan told me to use and is now expired.  Some part of it is still working.  but, I do not like Malware Bytes.  Very annoying.

I like Avast or eMini (sp?) but Satchafan siad to wait until done before installing any AV program.

Update still cranking.

104
One more thing Boggin:  I notice install and update for MS Security Essentials after the reboot.  I believe that Satchfan told me to delete all of this when I was working with her --- and I did.

So, should I install/update this now?

105
OK, Boggin, W7 booted up with no problem - it took longer than usual - prolly due to updates being installed.  But, got desktop back with going to last know config.

Based on what you said I started Windows Update again for the additional updates.  First time, stopped after 30 seconds with "could not continue." 

But, there was a try-again button and I pressed it and it has been searching for almost 5 minutes os far.  This seems good, I think.

The "P" is for pending.

I reviewed what you said about clock and I can not see where system determined something was =wrong with the clock.

OK, update has found updates - 2 important re security and many others.
But of the many others, I am only checking Dell display and two for .NET stuff as I use .NET --- not selecting any of the others unless you tell me to do so.

See below.

And, thanks VERY MUCH, again, Boggin for your help.

106
Success!  sort-of 4 of 6 completed.

I came back here just now after services and see that  4 of 6 complete.\

And, it wants a restart.
Error code 8007006E

I have attached the update history and the two that were not installed were MS Office updates for 2010 which I do not have on this machine.  I have only Office 2003 and 20013.

So, what is you diagnosis, Bloggin?

Are we past the two updates that caused the BSOD?

I will now reboot and let you know what happened in the next post.  Hopefully, it comes back with no problem.  Fingers crossed.

107
Ut oh - it is now 9AM the next day and installed updates is still at 2 of 6 and the progress bar does not look like it has moved by about 5PM yesterday.   So, it may be stock.  What to do?

I can cancel and ? or ?

Thanks, I see how I can select in the CMD window.  Will use that in the future.

I remember you mentioned clock in a previous post, but did not understand what you meant.  My clock is at the correct time and date.

 Over to you, Boggin.

108
Now after 6 PM and still updating.  Worried a little about this, but will let it play out. hehe

109
OK.  Still updating.  Maybe updates worked due to services.msc now automatic.

110
OK, so update still going and looks like it will take quite a while.
I will keep you posted.
When you have time tell me what went wrong about displaying the CBS log.  Thanks.

BTW, the King and Queens of Easter Bunnies are wearing crowns.  What are their crowns made of?

Happy Easter!

111
HOWDY - GREAT!  BOGGIN!

Sfc worked and updates found and ready to installed.
See attached picture.
But, could not get the sfc log to display - there was an error message - see picture.
So, I am applying the updates and will report when done.


112
OK, SFC is running "will tkae a long time" - Sorry that I forgot, but where do I look for sfc results or should I just trywindows update again when sfc done.  Thanks.

113
OK, Boggin,I did what you asked, below.
But, I have no idea what to look for in Event Viewer.
Should we ask someone in Bleeping Computer at this point?

114
windows update also has same error.  ATTACHED
IS IT NOT A LITTLE WEIRD THAT wu SAYD nEVER ON RECENT CHECK AND INSTALLED?
Sorry caps.

115
Howdy - No, the wininit and chkdsk were from September 2017.  All that I found I have posted.

116
I must have run check disk (since the problems begain last Summer at leat 15 times).  Never an error that I recall.  Attached is one I just ran without /F (by accident) as I did not want to reboot.  But, I will run again with /F and reboot if you want.

117
I am confused.
In the search for wininit and for chkdsk, the only events are in September of 2017.

For example:
Chkdsk was executed in read-only mode on a volume snapshot.

OK - I ran SFC again and posted the time and started the EV right after.
ATTACHED

120
EV ATTACHED HERE.

Hi - I guess I do not know how to get to advanced options.  Only choice was normal, safe with networking or command prompt.  I am in safe mode now.  Well, not really safe mode.

Safe mode has same thing.  Black screen and mouse. 

OK, I am trying F8 now.  OK, normal desktop.

I will try repair scan now on H DD windows.

Same message "Windows resource Protection could not start the repair service."

What to look for in Event Viewer?






122
Well, Windows comes up (pretty fast) but there is a black desktop; the mouse moves around but can not get task bar or task manager with Ctrl-alt-Del.

I shut if off and tried again and had the option for safe mode, etc.  I choose normal again and same thing happened:  black desktop and mouse.

What do you suggest, Boggin?

123
OK, Boggin.  I ran the repair exactly as you specified.  It said that it would take a while; it did.
At the end, the final message was "System has no integrity problems."

OK, so what is next, Boggin.  And, thanks  for you help.

124
OK, boggin,
I ran SURT.
It just --- sort of --- installs.
And the CBS log looks like this (3-27 is the first one):

However, Windows update still gives the message:

Error(s) found:
Code 80070422

I tried SFC /Scannow, and I got the message "Windows Resource Protection could not start the repair service."

What should I try next?

125
Howdy Boggin,

I found the file on my other machine (same Ultimate 64b) and took ownership of it and put the folder and file in the winsxs folder under Windows.  (BTW, it took a long time to take ownership of winsxs before I could do the copy.)  I put the big long amd64xxx file into the amd64xxx folder and also directly into the winsxs folder.

Still same error on the Windows update.  Exactly the same no change.

So, what do you suggest now?

BTW, I have INTEL CPUs on this machine.  Is this amd64xxx file have to do with the AMD graphics cards?
