Uninstall Windows Updates

Method #1

Windows Update is a very important tool that serves to protect or improve upon your computers functionality. In some cases, you may encounter problems due to an update that did not install correctly. If this happens, here is how you can uninstall the update package:
Go to Start>> Control Panel>> Add or Remove Programs
Select the Change or Remove Programs button
Locate the offending update, click it to highlight it, then click the Change/Remove button

If it is an updated device drive that is causing the problem, here's how you can uninstall the updated driver and go back to the previous one.
Go to Start>> Control Panel>> System
Click the Hardware tab
Select Device Manager
Double click the offending device
Click the Driver tab
Select Roll Back Driver

Method #2

Using System Restore, you can quickly and easily take your system back to a restore point before installing the update. Here's how:
Go to Start>> All Programs>> Accessories>> System Tools>> System Restore
Tick the task that states "Restore my computer to an earlier time"
Click Next, then follow the onscreen instructions
