Do a restart - if it crashes at logon your f*cked :) Did system, restore to 3 days ago and it hasn't fixed. Tried to uninstall all updates, no progress.

What does the event log say about the BSOD gary? Are the affected computers all the same type?

I'm surprised m$ hasn't started selling advertising space on the blue screen by now ;)

My laptop hung during the installs.. however, cancelled, rebooted and tried again. Updates applied and rebooted... no problems..... so far.

Will have a look, I have narrowed it to Wireless Card drivers, two different types not working so far, and completely different PC systems.
