SoCalRox Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Windows 7, HP laptop. When I try to reboot with new updates, it gets hung on the first one and will sit there all day if I don't turn it off. I've tried the Microsoft tool that should fix it, and nothing happens- it still hangs. How can I clear that all out and re-try the installs? I've tried all I could think of but nothing changes. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mduren2445 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 you should have the option (i think its f8) to go in and do a system restore to a point before your update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalRox Posted January 14, 2013 Author Share Posted January 14, 2013 I don't know what the restore point would be, so that's a last resort option at the moment, but it IS noted in case Paul's link doesn't get me there. Paul: Thanks!!! I have the delete process now. When I get home and am not remote, I'll try to reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully its all good now, I have had the same problem with 2 different computers and that fixed it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCalRox Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Upon further review, I think I need to reinstall Windows. I ran sfc /scannow and it couldn't even complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
