I'm crashing (blue screen death/dump) during Windows Vista Business Update #
941649…
Running Windows Vista Business, all current updates installed. P4-3.0 GHz.
W/HT, Intel 945 chipset/board, 2 GB ram, SATA drive, ATI graphics. I've had
this running and stable for 6-8 months now. Originally installed a fresh copy
of Vista Biz, 32 bit and aside from the occasional Vista bug here and there,
it's
been pretty stable...up until now. I can't imagine I'm the only one having
this same problem. When I install update #941649, my pc re-boots as it's
suppose to, when booting-up and during "configuring updates", I get a blue
screen dumb and in a matter or 1-2 seconds, it reboots on its own and will
continue to cycle unless I intervene. It happens so fast that I can't even
read the error message. I've tried re-booting and selecting "last known good
configuration" and "safe mode" and still the same problem. The only way I
can get
around this is to boot-up in "safe mode with command prompt", run a "chkdsk
/f" command, let it reboot and perform a chkdsk and then it boots up but
without the update installed. I've also tried running the "SFC /SCANNOW"
command from the command prompt and that runs and returns an error "Windows
resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them".
Needless to say, I'm not installing the update as I've tried several times
with the same failed results.
Any ideas or work a rounds out there? I understand this is a pretty
significant update and possibly one or two updates away from Vista SP1.
