How to reset the configuration on esxi 5.1 which hangs at startup?

Hi, I have a lab at home where I have an ESXi 5.1.0 host configured to turn on a virtual machine at startup of the host. The host starts and I'll see the DCUI for a few seconds before getting a purple screen crash. This started after I set up a virtual machine to use the pass through peripheral PCI. I found 2039030 which explains this bug KB. There is a patch, but as much as I know I can't apply it because the host crashes. Now, I'm a bit of a newb and was looking for ways to reset the configuration to prevent switch off when the host starts the virtual machine. I can't find a way to make this change. I tried the recovery of hypervisor mode during startup (Maj (R) but I get a warning saying there is no other hypervisors for restore. So is there a way I can either apply the hotfix to a host offline esxi (starting with a knoppix USB) or change a configuration so that vm does not automatically turn on, or if necessary just reset the entire configuration (again, by booting to a usb key)? Thank you!

Probably the best way to reset the configuration in this case is to re - install ESXi. Make sure that you select "Install ESXi, VMFS datastore preserve" and - once installed and configured - register the virtual machine to inventory in click with the right button on their .vmx files in the data store Navigator.
