Windows 7 Feb2010 updates - now not booting

[Solway]

Hi guys
Have an issue


just installed the updates for win7 in feb (7 of them i think)

had to restart, now i can't boot into windows

repair screen pops up after trying to get into windows:

i have tried a system restore, no go
i have tried sfc scannow, but it moans that a system restore is preventing it



im running out of ideas
i have a old recovery image, but i need/wish to save my current install

f'ing MS

You are not alone. This has happened to some XP users and 7 users. Its the windows update KB977165 that was installed. I have the same problem and am trying to uninstall the update with the command prompt through system restore at bootup. I have system restore disabled so I cannot go back to old an version. Here's one ongoing discussion.

how do i uninstall manually? system restore doesn't work for me

only other option, is to backup hdd with BartPE live cd and then use a old recovery image i have on drive

C:\Windows\Inf\setupapi.dev.log

To uninstall hotfixes you have to have access to system in normal mode.You cannot apply @madnaveen suggestions in Windows 7.You cannot log to the system through Win 7 DVD,this DVD let you only have access to files,folders on hdd nothing more.

There are many things which cause BSOD and cannot accest to system.Rescue sytem in Windows 7 is completely different than in XP.On other computer burn this special recovery disk Download Windows 7 System Recovery Discs — The NeoSmart Files

boot it,choose language>>repair computer>>System restore

I have system restore disabled so I cannot go back to old an version. Here's one ongoing discussion.

I know that some people seem to thrive on shutting off that functionality, but it's times like this that the tool comes in very handy.

ive had the exact same thing but i bit the bullet and did a fresh install, luckily i have 2 seperate harddrives that i do backups too so it wasnt to bad, this is very poor of microsoft to allow it to happen through a security update of all things! (shakes head in disgust)

 

[Solway]

well i had a image backup from around december


i used bartPE to backup files to other HDD. most of my stuff is on another HDD anyway

then just reloaded image.


the thing is i never turned off my updates uninstall! folders. but they were all gone, sigh

 

[markymark69]

does anyone know if there is a fix for this update bug at all??? im very loath to install another update for a while untill i know for sure??

 

[Solway]

not sure most news is talking about XP but somehow it happened to me on win7 Neowin.net - Microsoft investigating claims of wide spread BSODs due to recent patch

if you have win7, do a full image backup of system drive, just in case

 

[Solway]

well ive tested my issue and its the same update as XPs problem, although on windows 7 (not sure about the same BSOD, since i don't get that)

But its security patch KB KB977165

causes the systemt to reboot into recovery tool

No system store or cmd repairs work
