OK ... seems there are major problems with the download and automatic
installation of KB890830 & KB890175. I had automatic update install these
two downloads and when prompted, I clicked to to restart. At that point, I
received that same blue screen of death. It would dump the memory and
restart again and again only to get the blue screen of death again. I have
McAfee VS but since another said they had Norton, who knows if thats the
problem. Maybe a problem with all anti-virus software. Anyway ... rather
that letting it just restart time after time, I shut it down completely for
awhile. When I turned it on, it did finish loading Windows and boot up, but
warned me that my system has recovered from a serious system error. It
seems that something was not considered in the updates.
