Vista SP1 prerequis3te 3 endless boot loop

MSFT visted upon my Vista Business machine today and automatic update which
included prerequisite 3 of 3 which has left my computer in an endless boot -
configure loop.

Anyone else having that problem?

Have you tried hitting F8 at boot and loading either Safe mode or the last
known good configuration?

Hello,
Can you send me some of the log files from the system?
%windir%\logs\cbs\*.*
%windir%\WindowsUpdate*.log
%windir%\inf\setupapi.dev.log
%windir%\winsxs\poqexec.log (if exists)
%windir%\winsxs\pending.* (if exists)
%windir%\Performance\WinSAT\Datastore\*.*
%windir%\System32\winevt\Logs\application.evtx
Try booting to the Windows Vista DVD, choose the repair option in the lower
left-hand corner.
Choose to boot to a CMD prompt, copy the log files to a temp folder (or
onto removable media if available)

while in the repair more after copying the files to a temp location, you
should be able to choose the system restore option.
This should get you back operational.
Then send me the log file.
Remove the online the email darrellg@online.microsoft.com.


Thanks,
Darrell Gorter[MSFT]
