Hello all, I don't know where else to ask, I trust and respect you here. I am a computer idiot who knows nothing, but this much seems evident: I run Windows 7 Home Premium on a Sony Vaio laptop, about 3 years old, never a problem; after the last automated Windows update (12 September), the computer seems as if lamed. Sometimes working ok, but often as if there is "lag", most programs freeze up, I cannot use Internet Explorer, and everything is slllooooow, although task manager (when it finally starts) tells me nothing is going on. Obviously, gaming impossible. One thing I did notice is that the day before, an automatic windows update was in the works (one of those that happen on start-up or shut-down), and I got a message I had never seen before: something like "An error occurred when updating Windows; reverting to earlier version" (I think it was what it said). When I started up on 12.09 the update went through and I didn't think about it. But since then, the computer is sick. I have no idea what to do. I also run AVG 2012 free version, and it tells me the whole computer was scanned on 13.09 and nothing bad was found. Can anyone give me some (easy to understand!!! --> I am NOT computer saavy!) suggestions?
THANK YOU
