Purr4me Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Pay close attention to all the details on this page / screen...every word you see. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/service-packs-download#sptabs=win10 At the bottom...you see all versions of windows currently supported.at the top after clicking on the corresponding windows version, in the search windows...type this "service packs standalone" Now. you can scroll down and pick out every version possible in a sequence of installations and not need to reboot. Most of the time all .net software that uses that *.dll or the likes...will be installed and be correct for the system.Even old Xp pro ! you bet.....to date. just leave the "previews alone" unless you are a system Guru? Don't use those.at the very bottom, there are numbered pages deep...as you increase in in numbers, you go back in time. Some day very soon, all of that will be gone forever....So think hard about what you want for the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigdaddyRF2011 Posted May 3, 2016 Author Share Posted May 3, 2016 Thank you Kitty, I did fix the problem but at a cost. When I was installing a windows update an error occurred and I no longer could boot though windows. Trying to fix windows without reformatting wouldn't work so I lost all my programs and personal files. On the bright side though I had no choice but to use AVG Free as an anti-virus, different from the one I was using before. Also having nothing to lose I decided to try to install the Nvidia driver I knew to work for a fact. Then KA POW, all the issues where gone. The Nvidia driver version is 361.75, I had to go to the main Nvidia site and search for all drivers related to my system to find it. Finally everything works and I am happy, nothing I lost can't be re-bought or re-downloaded. Thanks for everyone's input, I hope someone can learn from my issue. Best of Luck in Future Endeavors.
