Starting my laptop

[MarieDK]

I have just changed the settings on my laptop (windows vista) for the updates. I changed it to download and install the update that I select.

i have restarted my laptop and now it stops responding after the welcome center comes on.

can you help me with that

I didn’t have that issue before  making that change on the settings

i have to switch the laptop if manually

Thanks very much 

it works 

my laptop is quite old and I am still using windows so it is obviously quite slow 

how can I still benefit from it? Still want to use the internet and allow kids to watch dvds and read books, until I can afford a new OS

is it possible
