windows vista update problem

Question:

upload got to configuring updates 3/3 and then kept rebooting without finishing.....HELP!!!...WHAT CAN I DO TO FIX THE MESS?




Answer 1:

Try tapping F8 at startup, and from the list of startup selections, select Safe Mode by using UP Arrow Key to go there > then hit Enter.

Try a System Restore once there, to pick a Restore Point before your problem..

Click Start > Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore > pick a different time > Next > etc

Cheers.

If the above does not work, try making a Bootable Repair Disk to do a Startup Repair:

 

 

As is the case with most computer/laptops these days, they do not come with the proper Vista Disk to do Repairs with; only Recovery Disks.

As yours falls into the above category, download the ISO file at the supplied link, and make a Bootable Disk from it.

 

Go into your Bios/Setup, or Boot Menu, at startup, and change the Boot Order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the Boot Order, then reboot with the disk in the Drive.

 

At startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, to go into Bios/Setup, or F12 for the Boot Menu.

 

When you have changed that, insert that Bootable Disk you have made in the Drive, and reboot.

 

You can do a Startup Repair, System Restore, etc with it.


Read all info at the website about creating and using it.

It makes a very good Repair Vista disk.


You can do a Startup Repair, System Restore, etc from it.


It is not a reinstall disk.

 

And the 32bit is what comes normally on a computer, unless 64bits requested.
