Downloaded updates (267 MB), and installed without any problems. Tested all installed software including VMWare VMs and had no problems (at least at this time). Did several restarts and shutdowns without any programs. Now that does not mean you won't have any programs, just that I haven't at this time. . .good luck with your updates. . .:D
