Latest Security Update (KB935448)

[Guest]

Has anybody had the problem with the latest security update (KB935448) in
which after installing but before doing the RealTek patch to the patch, that
their cd game disk (CIV 3: Conquests) won't load? Mine starts to load then
returns to the desktop. I did a system restore before doing the update and
reverted back to that and everything is fine so it has to be the security
patch (KB935448) that's doing something. Jeff.

Apply the fix that you can find on this MS KB page:

Dear Malke, I re-read my post and didn't make myself very clear. The first
time, I did the MS Security Update (KB935448) plus the RealTek patch
(KB935448) and then the cd game disk wouldn't load so I did a system restore
and the cd worked fine so the second time, I just did the MS Security Update
(KB935448) without the RealTek patch but the game disk problem came back so I
assume my problem is the MS Security Update (KB935448). I uninstalled the MS
Security Update (KB935448) and everything except the RealTek thing worked
fine. Any ideas? Thanks for helping. Jeff

The update for the ANI vulnerability is NOT KB935488, it is
KB925902: MS07-017: Vulnerability in GDI could allow remote code execution
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=925902

If it's more important for you to be able to play a game then to
effectively patch the system, please take it off of the internet and
contact the game manufacturer to see if they can assist you with this
issue.Thanks.

Dear MowGreen, Thank you for correcting me on the right patch number
designation. I don't think it's too much to ask that a WindowsXP compatible
game disk worked before a security update but not after. Furthermore thank
you for your condescending attitude and non-solution to my problem. You are a
very wise and valuable 'MVP' to the Microsoft community. Jeff.
