Windows 7 BSOD after Windows7 update

[David32]

After a Windows7 required update yesterday, Windows could not restart and the startup repair could not fix it. Eventually I was able to restore to a previous good state (via the HP Recovery Manager). Soon after restarting work this morning it again wanted to perform the update, presumably the same one - and it had the same result. Again, eventually I was able to restore to a previous good state.
There has been no recent change to my hardware set-up, nothing different attached and I believe no significant software changes recently other than the Windows update. If anyone is able to advise on this I would appreciate it very much as I seem to be on the verge of losing this machine.
The attached file has the W7F files, CPU-Z screen shots and the RAMMon files, so I imagine everything is there. This is an HP Pavilion dv6, about 3 years old, running W7 home premium SP1.
Fingers are crossed.

When you say it will crash by that do you mean bsod? If you have any new dump files then please send them in. Another thing to try is open the advanced options via the power options and under sleep make sure 'Allow Hybrid sleep' is set to on or yes.

Rarely the bsod. It doesn't wake from sleep. Pressing the power button brings it to a screen offering safe mode or a normal Windows start-up (so anything I'd left open has been closed or lost). I'm not aware of any more dump files I can give you.
I've put 'allow hybrid sleep' on. Presumably I also need to change from never allowing it to sleep and set a time. I'll set it to a fairly short time for now to see what happens.

It worked! That is, it went to sleep and woke correctly. I wonder why and what is different about hybrid sleep.
I'll leave it this way for a while and see whether it works consistently.

Fingers crossed..
