I have seen this problem with others but mine is slightly different.
I am using windows vista too, one night I was doing an update and it had to restart, as it was switching off my battery ran out and turned the whole thing off. I turned it on and the message came up and said ; 'Checking File System on C: its a ntfs file....' but when it got past the check instead of the log in bit it had a thing with the same background but saying ' Configuring Updates; Stage 3 of 3 DO not shut down computer' which it had when the pc ran out of juice. It just doe sit again and again. I have no idea what to do. Anyone got any ideas??

Welcoem to the forums.

Do you have a Vista CD? If you boot off it (restart with the CD in drive) you can run the boot repair.

Turn it on and leave it. The updates at restart seem to do nothing for ages then suddenly go to 100%.

No, did you buy the machine new? What make/model is it? Where did you buy it?

I would speak to HP and see if you can get some recovery discs from them, then run the repair. One you have them I can guide you through.

I can't seem to find how to speak to HP. Anyone got any ideas. Also, It asked my if I wanted to repair. I said yes and when it does it all the comes up is a blue screen wiht the mouse cursor which you can move around/
