Update for Package_for_KB2607712 (KB2607712) Windows Update caused my computer to crash for 5 days straight until I restored my computer back to the point before it was installed. Is it just me or anyone else has encountered the same problem? The day I installed this update, after restarting the system, my computer crashed; the screen would go blank and the Windows would turn off. But I could still hear the CPU fans running. It seemed as if the processor as shutdown while wireless adapter and cooling fans were still on. I even tried leaving it this way hoping that it might fix itself, but that didn't work either. Since then, every time I would turn on my computer, it would start the Windows and 2-3 minutes later the system would crash again. It continued for 5 days until I restored and unistalled this update. After recovery I simply hid this update. Afterwards, I didn't experience any crashes of this kind again. Please let me know if anyone has experienced this problem and has found a solution to it. This update seems to be a security update against fraudulent digital certificates. And if it is an important update, I want to install it without negatively affecting my computer. I experienced the same problem some time ago after a Windows Update (I don't remember if it was the same update) that caused my hard drive to fry and I lost 2 years worth of all my data.

I've had the same exact issue and personally the link given is a jungle of things, none of which fit our case. I've had to do a system restore to an image I managed to save before the update were put on...but it keeps telling me it has more updates to install. I do the install of the updates. Restart. Use my computer till I go to sleep, but the next morning, turn it on and just after the windows logo...poof...black. It refuses to go into safe mode as well. I have to do a full restore to the image to get it to work again...and there is windows wanting to update.

@Mienja - Hi, this forum is for Windows Server products. Windows7 is not a server product, it's a Windows Client product. Because Server and Client products are fairly different, this is why we try to re-direct questions to a more relevant forum, particularly for end-user (rather than IT Professional) questions. I recommend you ask a new question about KB2607712 at the Microsoft Answers link http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7, if there is no match already there for the issue you're having. Alternately, MS offer assistance with Security updates and products: https://consumersecuritysupport.microsoft.com/default.aspx?productkey=pcsafetymalware&faq=1&task=diagnostics&st=1&wfxredirect=1&altbrand=true&mkt=en-au The link provided by Syed, is also for IT Professionals, and IT Pro forums are usually very deep technical discussions that many end-users will have great difficulty in following.Don
