    So now, I rolled it back to the last time Windows was working normally, and it went back SP2. I installed SP3 and restarted with no problem. I installed the next set of important updates and when I had to restart the computer I got this again. So I rolled it back again and it's now on SP3.

    Have you installed the drivers for your graphics adapter?

    No because when I started to try and download the drivers, a message said that it couldn't download unless it was SP3, so then I started to do the upgrades and got the frequency message. I've been using this page to follow the order of the drivers, but I've only got to 1. From 2 onwards it's not downloading the driver, it's downloading the dell driver download manager application instead, and I don't know how to get to the actual drivers. *deep sigh*

    *EDIT*

    I've just read the troubleshooting, and it says you can choose to either use the manager or download on internet explorer. So I've opened up explorer and it seems to be working.

    I don't know drivers to choose. Like 4 I'm supposed to add a network interface card, but there are 16 options, and not one is called nic. Should I download them all?

    Yes, and I've managed to reinstall the drivers to get the sound working again.
