    MicroSoft Pulls Security Patch. Causes Blue Screen of Death.

    I just did this and my computer is running faster. I was lucky, this patch killed your computer.

    Tech giant Microsoft has recommended that an update released in the latest Patch Tuesday be removed, after users reported incidents of the "blue screen of death" after installation.Microsoft released two critical security updates and others rated as "important" for Windows and Internet Explorer as part of its latest round of Patch Tuesday updates.However, a number of Windows 7 users have reported issueswith security update 2823324, which is part of security bulletin MS13-036.MS13-036 was meant to fix three privately disclosed flaws and one publicly disclosed flaw in an NTFS kernel-mode driver related to the elevation of privileges when a user is logged in. However, once installed, security update 2823324 -- part of the bulletin -- may produce a "STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}" problem for users. The error occurs early in the startup process, and no Memory.dmp file is created.As a result, Microsoft has temporarily pulled the patch from its security bulletin while the issue is being investigated.


    If you have this patch, this might be a good idea.

    Hope I can find my damned XP install disk if I need it...
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    Just uninstall the update. Go to Windows Update, then "view update history" and on the left it should link to where you can uninstall the update.

    It'll tell you to reboot and it should be fine after that. Maybe a run of CCleaner to clean up any snigglets afterwards.

    It turns out to be a moot point. When I checked my shack computer, that particular update hadn't been installed. That's the only Windows machine out of the five I've got here. Six, if you count the tablet.

    Finally got into the MS support page about this—I'm sure their servers are being hammered right now—and it seems that the problem only affects Win 7.

    I've had this update installed since the 11th. Haven't noticed anything unusual.
