Windows Update to Network Adapter by cburson
The Windows Update for the "nvidia nforce networking controller" caused my internet to not work properly. I restored my system and rolled back the driver, both on separate occasions to resolve this issue. It worked, however, now I need to know what to do about the update. I cannot leave my settings to update automatically because of this. Any ideas?

windows update results in network failure by Fred Casa[_2_]
After installing important/recommended Windwos updates on my Dell Inspiron XPS, Windows can't find the broadband connection via my router (another PC is still connected to the internet via the same router). After System Restore, the network connection is re-established. What is happening? Any advice? The choice seems to be between updates and internet connection.

Windows Update Not Installing NIC driver by RockDawgLA
3Com 3c905b-tx NIC not working under Vista RC1. Using dialup, I go to Windows Update. It recommends updating the driver for that card. It downloads the file, but when it tries to install it, it fails giving me the code 80070103. I can't seem to find the solution to this problem. I have disabled anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall. No change. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Windows Update mess with Ethernet, why?? by Pilot-Doofy[_2_]
When Windows updates it turns off my internet connection on my computer. It works fine, but once it restarts from a Windows update it just says I'm connected to an unidentified public network. I turned updates off, but I shouldn't have to do this! What should I do to make updates actually work?

Windows Update kills audio on reboot by Jonathan Yaniv- Windows Live Butterfly Expert
This is seriously getting on my nerves, I have never been so mad at Microsoft. I installed the "Critical" updates that Microsoft wants me to do, I reboot, it "Configures updates" and then, all of a sudden, no more sound!!! I get the error "Failed to play test tone" when I try to test my audio, and I have installed the fix for it, but the fix did nothing, it just removed the "sound icon"...

Windows Switcher by Scott
I just got vista and i was looking around at all the different new devices. I really like the windows switcher, but somehow it changed the interface from allowing me to see all the different windows to bringing up a little box in the screen with the different icons. Is there a way i can change it back to the full out window switching default or what?
