You are correct and it is a problem for many since the Latest Vista
Automatic Update. The update does not complete then when the computer
restarts it automatically goes into "Startup Repair" which tells you that it
cannot repair the problem then shuts the laptop down. The problem is a
corrupted file that is attempting to be installed and this loop goes on
forever. I did all the known things like killing the pending.xml file but it
just gets recreated and the "Startup Repair" does it's thing again and shuts
down the laptop. The only way to get rid of it is to restore to an earlier
time but on this partitcular computer restore was off. If I could get rid of
Vista attempting to install this update all would be fine and I could
install the update manually. The only other option is to do a recovery of
the laptop and lose any installed programs. This really should not be the
only other option...
