Revenant (installation of the Service Pack) Just restarts again and again

Recently tried to install SP2 from Windows Update.
Unfortunately, someone either shut down the computer during the installation or the laptop lost power etc.

Now, I get the message "service not installed pack - reverting" formidable again and again and again. The system keeps restarting itself! I tried the standard startup repair, and there is no system restore points.

I even tried a sfc/scannow, but it shows a repair operation is in progress, and I have to reboot first.

Help?

Download the ISO on the provided link and do a repair of the disc.

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

When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

You can make a tool to restart system, System Restore, etc. with it.

Read all the info on the website on how to create and use it.

http://NeoSmart.net/blog/2008/Windows-Vista-recovery-disc-download/

ISO Burner: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html

It's a very good Vista repair disc.

You can do a system restart tool, system, etc it restore.

There is not a disk of resettlement.

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

See you soon.

  • Installation of the Service Pack

    I had a problem, try to install the service pack. My computer is now locked in constant reboot mode while displaying

    "Service Pack did not install. Restoration of the changes. Do not turn off your computer". Then stops and restarts with the same message over and over again.

    I tried to follow the instructions provided everywhere. But when I restart and hold down the F8 key so I can boot into safe mode, I tried selecting all security modes 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. I also tried F12 and F2. Nothing works, the same message of service pack arrives and I can never get to where I can see my desktop to click 'Start' to restore. I can't get out of this cycle. Please let me know what buttons I can press on to get into my computer.

    Hello

    As you can not use Mode without failure as a way to do a system restore, try a startup repair and / or a system restore using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft

    Manufacturers recovery disks normally do not have Service Options; they are normally a relocation to the factory only settings option.

    Here is the guide to repair Options using a Vista DVD from Microsoft.

    If a friend or a work acquantance of yours has one, you can borrow and use it for repairs.

    If you do not or can not borrow a Microsoft DVD there is a download of a file ISO of Vista Startup Repair available that you can put on a Bootable floppy to make the above startup repair and that the method is recommended by a large number of posters in these Forums.

    It seems after the installation of Service pack 2 for Vista, you get a message stating that the computer is installing Service pack 3 of 3 step, and it appears on every reboot start.
     
    You can try to remove Service pack 2 from the computer and install the stand-alone version of Service pack 3.
     
    To remove Service pack 2 access the link below and follow the steps:

    To install the stand-alone package of Vista SP2, access the link below and download the file to the desktop. Later, run the installation of Service pack 2 from the office.

    Try disabling the security software and install Service pack 2.
     
    If the problem persists, please respond back with the details:
    Was your computer pre installed with Service pack 1?
    You have a security software on the computer?  If so, the name of manufacturer of security software.
    You have the external devices connected to the computer during the update?

  • Installation of the service pack is never completed, also any recovery points

    My computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad W500, running only the provider installed Windows Vista Ultimate Edition.

    I tried to install service pack 2 on 27 May. Since then, whenever I stop the system indicates that it initializes the updates. Then when I restart the system I get the message 'Install Service Pack 2 - step 3 of 3-0% ' displays for some time, is never greater than 0%. Then the login screen appears. This cycle occurs whenever I have stop Vista and restart.

    However, I can't tick rained updates, I thought, is underway. And I see no updates after May 27.

    I tried to restore the system (I am logged as an administrator), but I get an error to run the system restore. The error code is 0 x 80070057, without any other explanation. So I booted safe mode. Here I can get into the system restore, but only two restore points are available: June 22 and June 23. Both are regular restorations. There is no other restore point, so I can't go back to May 26.

    Please let us know if you have defined the MSCONFIG back to normal startup? If it is not set to the Normal start, run MSCONFIG and set it to Normal startup and check if you are able to turn on services, Antivirus and firewall. You can also try running Sfc/scannow.

  • installation of the service pack #1 on vista tried but laptop does not open now

    I tried to install service pack 1 for vista, the laptop does not open now.  The fix itself function will start and pass by about 1/3 of the files, then crashes.

    You are welcome. Have a good holiday!

  • Since the installation of the service pack 1 (KB936330), the desktop icons are minimal, fonts are elongated and photos are crushed and elongated. is that a monitor problem or how to fix it.

    This has happanded since I installed service pack #1 (KB936330).

    I tried fixing with appearance of customization / advanced but since I am running Windows Aero Theme none of the changes seem to take effect.

    Go to the Web site of the manufacturer of your card for computer laptop/ComputerGraphics > drivers and downloads Section > key in your model number > looking for the latest graphics drivers for Vista > download/install them.

    Dropdown under Tools is missing 'half '.

    Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of your modules is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).

    Hi Asdlfjasdfjlasdf,

    How did you install ServicePack initially?

    You can try to start safe mode and try to perform a system restore.

    Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the button lock and then click on restart.

    2. do one of the following:

    a. If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then stop and restart your computer.

    b. If your computer has multiple operating systems, use the arrow keys to select the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

    3. in the display Advanced Startup Options, use the arrow keys to select the option of safe mode you want and press ENTER. For more information about the options, see startup options (including safe mode).

  • The installer requires service pack 1 cd. I have the service pack 2 cd

    Hi, I have reformatted and reinstall xp.  I got to 'insert the CD-ROM titled WINDOWS XP HOME EDITION SERVICE PACK 1 CD into your cd drive' I don't have service pack 1 cd.  I have just the service pack 2 cd, which he does not accept.  What can I do?

    Thank you

    Hello

    · Which CD you use to install Windows XP?

    · Is it exemplary retail or OEM of Windows copy?

    · You start on the CD to install Windows?

    Try to copy the I386 folder on another computer to see if the file copy very well without any problems. Follow the steps below:

    a. start your computer and start Windows. Insert your Windows XP installation CD into the CD or DVD drive.

    b. click on the "Start" button, click "Run", type "CMD" in the run window and then press the Enter"" key.

    c. type the following command in the command prompt window: XCOPY32 E:\I386\*.* C:\i386_copy_folder\ /e

    Note: Be sure to replace in the drive letter of your CD-ROM or DVD drive for the 'E:\I386\' of the order part and change the 'i386_copy_folder' to another file name or to another location if you want to.

    d. wait for the command to complete. Once he does, the command prompt will alert you to this fact, and the entire i386 folder will now be copied to your computer.
