Windows 7 updates
My updates for the last few days haven't configured [about 15 of them] - when I start the PC it takes about 10 mins saying configuring then says can't configure - resetting. It then starts OK.
I have read you can over come this by doing a manual install - the updates show as installed but failed - but when I go to try to uninstall them they don't show in the list of updates at all.
Do I need to system restore and download again then manually install? or is there away to configure them from where they are?
Any help appreciated.

ok, when yu go into 'windows update' ask it to look for updates. it should tell you there are four (maybe different on your system) important updates. There is a button to 'Install Now' let it run and it should then tell you it needs to shut down. let it do that. When mine restarted the updates installed straight away without that long hang
Good luck

Oh thank you so much Poltergeist..
I hadn't realised they were the same 3 updates that Windows had tried to install 5 times - hence the 15 failures
All fixed now
