Hello folks,
I've been fighting failed updates for quite some time, years. I can install some individual updates, but the cumulative updates fail most every time. I've read much on the web but have not been successful at resolving this.
I've tried to repair Windows using the original Windows 7 Pro disk, but it doesn't find any OS when booted from Windows 7 Pro disk. It tells me to install drivers, but I'm unable to find them using the repair tool.
I'm running a dual boot Toshiba Qosmio X775 laptop:
Processor: Intel Core i7-2600QM
RAM: 8 GB
OS: Windows 7 Pro Sp1 64-bit on 1 500GB hard drive
OS: Linux Mint 18.2 on separate 500GB hard drive
I get a Grub boot menu on startup to choose operating system.
