I can't start my computer after installing updates to manualling

This happened almost a year and once from time to time I revisit the issue to see if I can find a solution.

I tried to download the new version of Windows Live Messenger. Installation did not work because I needed a certain update. This hard drive (I have several) was not install updates for a while. Up to this point, I just thought it was a nuisance, but not a major problem. Because my computer would not install the updates on its own, and I needed a special update for the new Windows Live Messenger, I went online to find the update to install. I got the update ID (I don't remember what it was) so I quickly found and installed. Everything seemed fine until I restarted my computer - or attempted to guess - after installation. My computer won't start. I get a screen asking if I want to start Windows normally or start windows repair.

Here are some of the things I've tried so far:

Start Windows normally: a screen comes up saying something about checking the disks and it is recommended that you do not stop the disk check. I do not have anything and immediately it says that the disk check has been arrested. He stays on this screen infinitely - believe me I left on this screen for hours.

Repair Windows: I used windows repair in the past for other problems and it worked wonderfully. This time I click to run windows repair and I go to a blue screen with the background of the blue sinuous line of vista but there is to this and nothing comes up.

Safe mode (and any version of safe mode): when starting, I pressed F8 to start the extended options. All safe mode options lead to the same thing. I get a list of drivers and it says please wait... It always gets stuck on \windows\system32\drivers\crcdisk.sys and it is going nowhere.

I tried almost all the options in the F8 menu and they all be given the normal startup problem or safe mode

I then tried to do a repair of my disk of vista system. This time - unlike the previous attempt to repair windows - I got the menu normal repair. Unfortunately, the repair "attempted to correct the disk error" during more than 15 hours. I then shut down my computer, once again beaten by my computer.

I always use this computer with other drives with no problems. Thus, it is certainly a problem on the hard drive and must be associated with the update I installed manually before this problem.

Help, please!

Hi, EMP,.

Since you are unable to boot into safe mode and unable to repair the system, you can try to boot from the Windows Vista disc and try to perform a system restore.

Method 1: Try to perform a system retsore.

For more information, you can consult the following articles:

An update is not installed successfully when you try to install the update in Windows Vista and Windows 7

What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

Method 2:

If you still experience the problem, then try to perform a checkdisk to repair bad sectors on the hard drive.

You can boot from Vista disk full or to run Checkdsk select command prompt from the System Recovery Options menu.

a. Insert the installation disc.

b. restart your computer.

c. click on the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart. If you are prompted, press any key to start Windows from the installation disc.

Note: If your computer is not configured to start from a CD or a DVD, see the documentation provided with your computer. You may need to change your computer's BIOS settings.

d. choose your language settings, and then click Next.

e. in the System Recovery Options menu, click command prompt

f. at a command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER

Chkdsk /f /r X: (drive letter)

Note: When you run the checkdisk, there are risks of data loss you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

g. press y when you are prompted to check the drive the next time the system restarts.

h. close all applications and restart the computer.

Note: When you run the disk check, there is a chance of losing the data you can take a backup before starting the checkdisk.

 Hope this information is useful.

  • Windows update - Windows Update is not restore my windows/desktop computer after installing updates

    When running Windows Update is not reproduce my office and rather trashes everything.  Ysterday I left to work with over a dozen research Internet Explorer open and this morning, I get to a Windows auto update cycle, which wrecked all.  Well Yes, they are lost and of course, I can spend an hour or more to find once again but my boss is breathing down my neck, as if it was my fault.  Microsoft how inconsiderate!

    Of course, I have a solution, TURN OFF Microsoft Update but is this really what Microsoft wants?

    Please people think.

    Hi jbeech,

    No, I don't work for Microsoft and I am not associated with them in any way (other than to receive awards and certificates I earned on my own).  I'm a volunteer civilian gift free time to help other people.

    I meant nothing personal, per my comments of workflow.  I was just trying to do my best to help you avoid this problem in the future and apologize if you took it the wrong way.  I agree with you that he must restore it things automatically (as it does when you use the hibernation), but maybe that can be done (at least not always) because updates may affect items that are open and to update these programs must be closed (which makes saving them more difficult because if they look different after the update) It may not work if we try to restore them unless they can find a way to save ONLY the information and it is a much more difficult task).  This problem does not occur with an accident or an unexpected shutdown (and a complete restoration in cases does not always work as well and completely that we hope - at least I had problems back exactly where I was with all that every time).

    While you can choose to turn off automatic updates, you don't want to not go for very long without updating your system, so checking periodically (although if you want to do on a daily basis - I would try at least every Wednesday at least since most updates are released every Tuesday) is important in all cases.  The option I suggested (i.e. automatic downloads but no facilities) would at least them already downloaded (you would not need to check - that they would be there) it would take much less time to choose and install if you show if off completely - and when you decide to install, you will find it takes MUCH more time because you need to download and install (unless they are already downloaded).  But it is entirely up to you.

    Good luck and best wishes!

  • How can I restore my computer after installing VS2010

    I am running VISTA SP2.  I was running Visual Web Developer 2008 Express successfully for over a year when I started to have a problem of sqlserver, I couldn't fix.  Could not get help on the forum and MS of course does not provide support for a free product.  First of all, I wanted to try a new product on a trial basis, namely Visual Studio 2010.  My first trip was a disaster, but in fairness to MS, it's probably because I was installing a version appropriate for my VISTA Home Premium.  I chose the 'Professional' version, which has its own version and installed smoothly in comparison to the previous installation (with only a few items, do not install).  Bottom line after a few attempts to restore me to my home State, had to get a popup error saying effectively

    CompilerService.EXE service failed try to debug the process, the question I want to ignore or to debug.  No matter how I responded that he kept trying on even after I closed Visual Studio.  Tried to post on the forum with no response, and once again there is no Microsoft support because it is a trial.  I do not understand how I could ever buy a product I can not install even with success as a trial.  Anyway after that 10 days to install, uninstall, try this and try that, I decided to uninstall VS2010 before trying anything else.  I removed VS 2010 and what sounds like one of his tools, the descendants or siblings.  And here I always get an error popping at frequent intervals, saying: see below.  VS has been deleted, I find not just-in-time, and I'm tired.  If anyone out there can suggest something that might work?

    An unhandled exception ('System.InvalidOperationException') occurred in CompilerService.exe [7328] just-in-time debugging this exception failed with the following error: no installed debugger has Just-In-Time debugging active.  In visual Studio, Just-In-Time debugging can be activated from...

    I thought that this register may be the cause of this persistent popup errors, so I thought I would use a FIXIT MS has made available, but the FIXIT tool fails as I mentioned before.  If someone reads this, I can be informed that I'm posting this question on this forum, so please tell me where to post.

  • Cannot start the PC after MS Updates

    Later installed MS Updates Friday, restarted PC and it appears with the following message to any attempt to boot the PC:

    Reboot and select proper boot device or insert boot media in selected boot device and press a key.

    It is a RAID system, and this is not the first time that MS Updates were killed. Previously, I've been able to startup repair and operate. This time, he fails.

    During the phase of computer repair, after loading the driver RAID, the repair process States: finds any problems with options to start your computer. Want to ask repair and restart your computer. (I had a glance on the details and he found the installation of Windows 7 Pro X 64) Select Yes, and then immediately, I received the following:

    Windows Update the drivers of your motherboard can be one of the possible reasons why you experience a problem with your computer after installing/running Windows Update. Update chipset drivers may result in conflicts with an outdated BIOS. The integrated RAID controller depends on the version of the BIOS installed in your motherboard.

    With this, we suggest disable you the driver in your Windows Update.

    Follow the steps below on how to disable the update of the driver:

    1. Press on and hold Windows key + R and type "sysdm.cpl" then press the enter key.
    2. Click the hardware tab.
    3. Click Device Installation settings.
    4. Select "No, let me choose what to do" and "never install driver software from Windows Update".
    5. Click on save changes.

    You will receive still all the other Windows Update as usual. If a piece of hardware should be updated in the future, you will need to go to the hardware manufacturer's website to download and install the latest version of the driver.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Hi skipplummer,

    You can check in the history of Windows update and the updates recently installed.

    Step 1:

    Check the update history to see what updates have been installed. See the link for the same mentioned below.

    See the Windows updates are installed

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/see-which-Windows-updates-are-installed

    Step 2:

    Given that the problem occurred after installing Windows updates, you can try a system restore and then try to install the updates one manually and check.

    You can try a system restore to a point before installing updates.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:
