I have a 503WM Compaq Presario with Windows Vista Home Premium, which has problems after a Windows updated today. First of all, I have installed .NET Framework (3.5?). Windows Update started and downloaded a few other updates, and then asked to restart my computer - on restart received the updates configuration message, but when you have to configure the updates: phase 2 of 3-100% full. Do not turn off your computer, nothing happens--or my hard drive internal or external are doing something and Ctrl-Alt-Del does nothing. What should I do next?
Before that, I installed Hallmark Card Studio 2010 Deluxe and received an error message 2738. Followed the instructions on Microsoft to add two files that had to do with the VB script. Hallmark installation instructions downloaded then installed .NET Framework 3.5. The update of Windows has started and installed (I think) 4 critical updates.

OT: Windows Update failure 8.
I recently re-installed Windows 8 using an old product key once I updated my PC using Windows 7 due to failure to boot Windows Technical Preview. The installation went smoothly, but when installation is finished, he told me that I had installed updates, for the most updated security. I installed them and restarting my PC, he has said configuration Windows Updates... Do not turn off your computer. It is immediately followed by updates default Windows configuration . Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer. It accomplishes this task for like 10-15 minutes and then finally starts. Once my PC starts, this cycle starts again. So far, happened 4 times.
Could someone please fix this? I want to update to Windows 8.1, but could end up, I'm stuck with Windows 8. (Also, why download from the store disappeared? "I'm not using a RT system).
Thank you!

Vista Basic
As stated above I get this error message and can not do in SafeMode to rstore system dates back to an earlier era.
I did the system of tapping F8 and tried all offered options of safe mode, but it does not open in any safe mode, just this error message
I read a lot of forums and other people with a similar problem (but more than 2 years ago!) could be accessed in secure mode or had a Vista system drive which gave a repair option.
I have neither. Even the "External recovery Media" disc only allows me to do save and restart. During the reboot it just goes straight to the error message.
At the start, I have the option (via F2) for open System Utilities but couldn't see whatever it is in there that I thought might help.
ALL IDEAS _ SOMEONE PLEASE!
See you soon

Hi howeclan,
To resolve this problem, you need to have the drive of the installed operating system. You can see the following article in the knowledge base: the update is not installed successfully, you receive a message, and the computer restarts when you try to install an update in Windows Vista and Windows 7:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/949358
You can contact the manufacturer of the computer to the disk, or you can also contact a store of assistive technology.

Message "preparation set up windows, do not turn off your computer" slept for hours. What can I do?
After upgrading from microsoft and restart message appears
Problem fixed, for now. Was able to start in safe mode and did a restore. Run Windows Update and all is well. Don't know where the problem came because it is a branded PC after only 2 hours of use, and the only thing I downloaded outside the windows update is an update for Silverlight.

Greetings,
I installed updates in my Windows 8.1 partition. Then he asked me to restart the computer, and the message "we could not finish updates, exchange loss, do not turn off your computer" appeared and was on-screen for hours. I thought to reinstall bootcamp but I have software in the Windows partition that cannot be recovered. I read that one of them starts Windows in 'Safe' Mode, but this is not possible. I use a MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, early 2015) OS X 10.10.5
How can I fix this without wiping the Windows partition and lose my software?
Thank you!

I have a Dell Inspiron 1525 with Windows Vista, and I have tried the following to fix my endless reboot with the "Configuring updates: stage 3 of 3 0% complete.". Do not turn off your computer. »
- I inserted the cd 'Réinstallation DVD Windows Vista', but it won't pop up any kind of prompt for me to do something with it. I tried putting the cd in what was on the computer and tried leaving him in and restart it - but the cd has no EFFECT.
- I used the F8 key and I tried the following with no luck: safe mode, safe mode with network, safe mode w / command prompt, enable logging, last known good configuration (Advanced) boot and debug mode. Most of these options make the monitor off (to make you think he will do something), then it just restarts and did the thing reboot loop again and again.
- I also tried the repair your computer option to the F8 key. He asks me to log in as an administrator (but my password does not work). So, I use the menu drop down and choose the name of my computer and then use my password, and I can connect to "restoration of access options '. Once I'm in the "System Recovery Options". I tried the following with no luck: Startup Repair tool, restore the system, Windows complete PC Restore, Windows Memory Diagnostic tool and command prompt. THE only ONE that I HAVE NOT YET TRIED it IS THE "DELL FACTORY IMAGE RESTORE", it's because I want to try to fix it without losing everything on my hard drive. Here are the details of the I've tried in the "System Recovery Options".
- The command prompt says: 32 X:\Windows\system > (I have no idea how to use it, but it's what he says)
- The memory diagnostic tool reboots the computer, but nothing new happening (just reboot over and over again)
- In the PC restore full Windows: I tried to put the Windows Vista CD in, but it can not find a valid backup location
- When I click on the system restore: it is said: "no restore points were created on your computer's system disk. To create a restore open system protection point. When I click on the system protection, it is said: "your computer is running in a limited diagnostic State. If you use the system restore in this limited State, you can't undo the restore operation. Help topics are not available in this State. " So I press OK, and I'm back to square one.
- When I click on startup repair: it says "Startup Repair could not detect a problem.
- I know there are many many posts on this problem, and I think I've tried all the suggestions on how to solve the problem, but they do not work for me.
- PLEASE HELP ME! I need my computer for my college work. I can't borrow laptop my friend forever!
