Justin, I've been using computers for 40 years. Learned by programming assembly language on a PDP-8. You probably don't even know what that is. If you go into windows device manager and there is a yellow check mark next to the display adapter category, the update will fail. In case you don't know, the yellow check mark means that Windows has detected an error with the device. If you right click on the device and open the properties window it will tell you the error code. In my case it was error code 43. In some cases an error code 43 indicates a hardware failure, in other cases the error can be cleared by uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the video card. I was able to clear the check mark by doing the latter and once I cleared that check mark the update installed without a hitch. Will this be the case for everyone who can't install the update, no, absolutely not, but it was definitely the case on my machine.
