Visa update problem

After trying to install the updates.  my computer is now stuck in constant reboot mode while showing "Configuring updates 3 of 3 0%, do not turn off your computer.  I tried to follow the instructions provided here because it seemed to be the same problem.  But when I restart and hold down the F8 key so I can boot into safe mode, I tried selecting safe mode and I get the same results, and I tried again by selecting the option 'Disable automatic reboot' which seems to be an option on the same page with the option of safe mode.  Whatever it is, the same message comes back and I can never get to where I can see my desktop to click 'start '.  I can't get out of this cycle.  I installed the update because it said I needed to install it.

*************************************************************************************************************************************************

Turn off your computer by holding the power button for about 20 seconds.
 
Start your computer in safe mode: press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears
 
Disable the automatic restart in the event of system failure:
 
  • Click Start
  • Click on Control Panel
  • Click on system and Maintenance link.
  • Click on the system link
  • In the left pane, click Advanced system settings
  • Locate the startup and recovery area, click the settings button.
  • In the startup and recovery window, uncheck the box next to automatically restart.
  • Click OK in the startup and recovery window
  • Click OK in the System Properties window
  • Close the system window
 
After that... While STAYING in safe mode I do a system restore and maybe try a manual install of the update later.
 
For the sake of space I refer you to the article about how to proceed.
