Install optional driver updates from Windows Update for IdeaPad Yoga 13?

Windows Update on IdeaPad Yoga 13 - Windows 8.1 (64-bit) suggests two optional updates:
Conexant - Audio Device - Conexant SmartAudio HD
10.01.2014
Intel Corporation - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 - Intel(R) HD Graphics 4000
Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 software update released in May, 2014
04.06.2014
Should I install those updates or should I keep the original drivers?
The original drivers from Lenovo "Drivers and software" section (http://support.lenovo.com/de_DE/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS032590) seem to be older/outdated:
Conexant Audio Driver for 64-bit Windows
8.65.3.53 10/22/2013
Integrated Graphics Driver for 64-bit Windows
Windows 8.1 (64-bit)
9.17.10.2843 10/23/2012
Intel Video Driver for 64-bit Windows
10.18.10.3282 10/22/2013

Windows Update has now another update for "Intel Corporation Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1" and still no updates on the Lenovo site.
So I tried the the drivers from Windows Update and it seems that every thing is still working fine.

Is there any "contraindication" about installing every updates from Windows Update (and Intel drivers)?

Hello!
The question is in the title.
I decided to reinstall Windows 7 on my MacBook Air using Boot Camp and I'm trying to play a video game which is quite laggy. I downloaded and installed the lastest driver for HD Graphics 4000 and my computer didn't explode. Can I also download all the optional updates with Windows Update, including the ones concerning drivers? I read somewhere that we shouldn't install other drivers than the ones on the Boot Camp x.x Support Software installer... Is it true?
Thanks!

Peter,
From what I read, I thought Internet based clients always download from Microsoft Windows Update first?
"New in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager, when you have a software update point that is configured to accept connections from the Internet, Configuration Manager Internet-based clients on the Internet always scan against
this software update point, to determine which software updates are required.
However, when these clients are on the Internet, they first try to download the software updates from Microsoft Update, rather than from an Internet-based distribution point. Only if this fails, will they then try to download the required software updates from
an Internet-based distribution point. Clients that are not configured for Internet-based client management never try to download the software updates from Microsoft Update, but always use Configuration Manager distribution points."

Download non-english updates from Windows Update Catalog

Hi, I would like to integrate all updates to install image. However, I must select all language of each updates on Windows Updates Catalog each by each. Any idea to download all updates with differance language as easier?
thanks

Hi,
I'm afraid that it is inevitable and you have to tick "Select all" for each update if you want to download all language of Updates. Why do you want to integrate all language updates into an image? if you need additional language user
interface, then you just need language pack added to your image.

KB2388210 Update from Windows Update Breaks Sound Driver

My sound card driver stopped working after I installed this update. ?I reinstalled the driver multiple times and the issue was not fixed. ?I uninstalled the update and my driver worked once again. ?I have a Xtreme Gamer Fatality card.

It's an application compatibility update. I don't think it is a common issue.
Did you remove the update?

Windows 8.1 Update from Windows 8 Giving Error Message During Installation

I was instructed to use a generic Windows 8.1 key, and then change it to my Windows 8 key after installation. But, at either 94% or 96%, it gives me the following error during the installation:
Windows 8.1 Update has failed.
I have tried everything online and can't find anyway around it. In the meantime, all of my Windows Store apps are broken, and thus I can't update from the Windows Store. I have the correct ISO files from http://microsoft.com/ and I even have the option to
install Windows 8.1 from a program that was automatically added to the "Classic Start Menu" that was presumably placed by Windows automatically. No matter how I attempt to install it, it fails. I would really appreciate it if someone would help me
soon.
Thank you,
Ben

Hi,
I was instructed to use a generic Windows 8.1 key, and then change it to my Windows 8 key after installation.
What's the meaning of it?
Did you update from Windows 8 operating system from Window store?
Please locate to %WINDIR%\Panther, see if there is any clue in the setupact.log and setuperr.log.
Meanwhile, please refresh or reset your original Windows 8 system to ensure it's complete and correct.
Then retry to update to Windows 8.1 from Windows Store.

Unable to switch from Windows Update to Microsoft Update

On a new Windows 7 64 bit computer I am unable to access Microsoft updates. Windows update works fine, but when I click the link to get updates for other Microsoft Products it will only take me to the screen that tells me to use the start menu to check for
updates. I have also tried other links to Microsoft Update from other Microsoft webpages and end up with the same result.
I have Office 2013 Standard installed and activated, and from previous installation experience know that I should be able to access numerous updates through this method.
To verify that I am able to install updates for Office I manually downloaded and installed one Office 2013 update through the Microsoft download site.
How do I get this machine to switch to Microsoft Update?

Hi,
According to your description, I think you may had a misunderstand between these two updates installation. Here is a paragraph which talking about Use Windows Update to Check for Updates to other Microsoft Products:
By default, Windows Update can download and install updates for Windows 7 and features that are part of the operating system (such as Internet Explorer). You can also merge the functionality of Microsoft Update—a service for managing updates to Microsoft
Office and several other Microsoft products—into Windows Update so that you no longer need to visit Office Online to get updates.
If you do not already have Windows Update integrated with Microsoft Update, you will see the message “Get updates for other Microsoft products” on the Windows Update home page. To enable checking for other products, click the Find Out More option shown beside
this message. This will take you to the Microsoft Update site for some quick installation steps. You only need to do this once. Thereafter, the Windows Update home page will indicate that you receive updates “For Windows and other products from Microsoft Update.”

Hope this helps. If you need further assistance on this particular issue or any other Windows related issue, let us know and we will be glad to assist you.

Whenever I update from Windows 7 get error 1602, iPod shows USB connection to iTunes, but iTunes will not recognize the device. None of the Apple documentation helps.

Whenever I update from Windows 7 get error 1602, iPod shows USB connection to iTunes, but iTunes will not recognize the device. None of the Apple documentation helps. The Apple Mobile Device driver is loaded and operating. The anti-virus software and firewall are not at fault (were uninstalled, and made no difference). The iTunes on my older machine running Vista does recognize the inoperative iPod (iTunes has detetced an iPod in recovery mode) and allows me to restore the device. Can anyone help to resolve this problem on the Windows 7 PC?

So yu tried all of this:
Error 1600, 1601, 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error:
Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
Restore and wait for error 1604.
When prompted, click OK.
Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
Try to restore again.
If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
If you had then time for an appointment at ther Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Prevent local administrators from opting out of Microsoft Updates / accessing Windows Update "Change settings" page

Hello,
Is there a a group policy setting / dll file / registry setting that I can restrict access to that would either:
A) prevent local administrators from unchecking the "Give me updates for other Microsoft products when I update Windows" box?
or
B) prevent access to the "Change settings" option on the left side of Windows Update?
Thanks!

> referring to the "Remove access to use all Windows Update features"
Yes.
> enabling this group policy setting would disable Windows Update and
No. It removes access to windows update, not windows update itself. If
you enable it, you have to make sure that windows update is properly
configured:

Take a look at Apple's document for authorizations -> iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization.
You can deauthorize all computers from iTunes. All you have to do is click iTunes Store, click your account name in the upper right corner of iTunes, then deauthorize all.

I updated from Windows 8.0 to Windows 8.1 and ever since Firefox has run somewhat strangely. In particular when on sites with a lot of images like Facebook,etc

Hello, I am writing as I am experiencing some issues with my favorite web browser after updating to Windows 8.1. Here are some details. I updated from Windows 8.0 to Windows 8.1 and ever since Firefox has run somewhat strangely. In particular when on sites with a lot of images like Facebook. It is like there is some kind of Flikr effect between the desktop and the images and between the images and the browser (almost like old 16 bit video games flikering). It is not too bad but it is an issue. I have tried resetting firefox and restarting the computer. I haven't tried a repair, and I haven't done an uninstall yet.

thank you for helping, the issue seems to have been caused by the hardware accelerator

How Do You Filter, Or Stop Automatic Updates From Windows or HP to a Windows 8, 2000 Notebook PC.

I have a HP 2000 Notebook PC, Windows 8, 64 bit. I would like to be able to filter or see these updates before they go in my computer. Is there anything I can do, or a setting I can set?
Thanks,
Susie

I can't download updates from the update option in PS CS 5.1.

I can't download updates from the update option in PS CS 5.1. Also having trouble installing the update directly from ADOBE. The program is crashing my system on a regular basis. Anybody got any ideas?

It might help if you were a bit more specific, e.g., ''I chose Help - Updates, and this happened, then that happened, then an error message that stated 'xxxxxx' was displayed''.
It could also help others help you if you'd describe your system - what kind of hardware, what operating system, etc. One good way to do that is to choose Help - System Info in Photoshop, then copy and paste the info into a post here.

I had downloaded and installed one of those automatic Windows update and now whenever I try to open my Firefox I get an error message, "Platform version 6.0.2 is not compatible with minVersion 6.0.1 maxVersion 6.0.1

I had downloaded and installed one of those automatic Windows update and now whenever I try to open my Firefox I get an error message, "Platform version 6.0.2 is not compatible with minVersion >6.0.1 maxVersion <6.0.1

If you use ZoneAlarm Extreme Security then try to disable Virtualization.
Do a clean reinstall and delete the Firefox program folder.
