New problem i never seen before. Black screen
« on: December 21, 2007, 05:43:02 AM »
I went to download some torrent movies using bittorrent and i left the laptop on. In the middle of the night, I hear a loud alarm from my pc. I turned off the sound but i found out it came from my pc. I quickly powered it off to shut it up without seeing what was on the screen. Went back to bed.

Next day i turned on the pc and it was loading all good until it got to the desktop part. Everything was black with this one prompt

"Fehler beim Setzen der Dat en fur Windows Update"

I opened up the task mananger and there was no applications running. It seemed like a whole lot of servicesc was added though.

Then i just gave in and restored to a couple days back, but the problem started again (maybe because of my backup)

Then i restored it again, and here i am.
If it happens again, i will take pics and vids of it for a clearer analysis

Go to Panda software and run the online virus scan/killer.  Then when the virus is dead, download a new free AVG from grisoft.com, and visit Windows Update.com

Where is this copy of Vista from ? ?
Are you saying you are unable to get Vista Updates ? ?

The possibility still exists that you are infected...

Have a Read and then visit Our Virus and Spyware section.
