Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Every time Windows does those mandatory updates, I cant use my computer anymore.  Usually I can find a solution, but not having luck this time.  So...at first, I would see the hp logo and then it would go blank.  Now when I start up, it's just blank.  I tried F2 diagnostics and no problems.  Can't boot from my recovery disk.  Don't really know what I'm talking about here. Just tried things I read.  I have no idea where to take it for repair except BB and I'd rather not.  I'm assuming it's an easy fix and I'm cheap.   I would welcome suggestions on this specific issue and/or how to stop these problems in the future.  It is continually frustrating. Do I just have to turn off all updates?  Wouldn't that cause other problems?
