I don't usually have issues, especially that bad. Never that bad in fact. Stick was probably going bad anyway and the update just pushed it along.
But the timing. Jesus it's criminal how much decent ram costs today.

I don't think you can anymore. Even disabling via registry will eventually forcefully upsate.

yeah one of the drives on my plex nas server started reporting errors, i did get an RMA from serverpartdeals where i bought it a year ago but i bought an extra one off ebay (mfg refurb) for almost $700. same exact drive cost me $280 a year ago. it fucking sucks how AI slop has let companies triple prices on everything.
not coincidentally a bunch of reports out this week that PC sales are down like 30%, console sales down 25%, etc. no shit sherlock, food has gone up 40-50% and electronics have gone up 100%.
the fucked up thing is its only gonna get worse cuz the jews convinced our idiot president to attack Iran, now diesel is up 150% and is the building block of all shipping worldwide. next year is gonna be catastrophic, but somehow stocks will still go up.

I'm having the same problem lately but it'll eventually start up. I don't know wtf is going on, it's a brand new PC.

I mean, MS sucks and all that but "Windows Update" didn't kill your RAM; it just died while Windows was updating, unless you have something more directly indicative that Windows Update was causative. Otherwise its just French peasants killing cats.The Great Cat Massacre - Wikipedia It's the worst time for anything, HD or Memory related at least to fail. I have a stack of unfinished project upgrades and other BS on my workbench that I felt was a $500 sign of failure; now it seems it's a $2500 spare parts pile for the Long Winter of the Rampocalypse. Hopefully it won't last that long, at least in the way the Big 3 DRAM companies (now 4 or 5? with the two new Chinese manufacturers) are indicating.

I've been doing 'hide for now' until it MAKES me do the update. Thanks for reaffirming that I am doing the right thing. really sorry about the hosed PC.
