Re: KB908531 - major problems

Alan,
Does your system have an Nvidia graphics card? If so, see what version & date the video driver is at.
It is said that having the latest Nvidia drivers is a solution.

Can you post back with info on your video card & the driver?

Perhaps the following will explain & resolve your issue:

down to Item No. 383 "Hewlett-Packard's Share-to-Web software - Fix (MS06-015)"
to download a registry fix.

Note: You may need to temporarily disable your antivirus program
in order to safely run the scripted fix.

Also, review the following:

This is all very nice but this is not the way to go. Microsoft has to come out
and admit they made a blunder and apply the fix themselves.

I've reported this bug to them via telephone call and email. I don't have
the software you guys are talking about that causes the problem.

The update would not allow me to access my windows address book and
when I uninstalled the update I was able to. I've now disabled automatic
updates until microsoft comes forward and does something which they
should.
