    Vista Stuck in Loop After Automatic Update

    This afternoon I was installing Visual Basic Express 2008, during that
    installation process Vista notified me that it had downloaded system updates
    that required a restart. I rebooted after VB Express had fully installed
    (which also indicated that it needed a restart).

    Now the computer is stuck in a loop. It boots to the Vista background (not
    the desktop) with a message that it is configuring the updates. then it
    shuts down and reboots to the same point, same configuring message and shuts
    down again, all in an endless loop.

    I have tried to boot into safe mode and to the last good configuration and
    get the same results.

    Any ideas how to solve this problem? Thanks.

    Just leave your Vista alone overnight. It appears to be the best cure for
    many other problems. It should be connected to the Internet though.
