Removing an Update

Hi,
I Just Installed These Updates with "/quiet /norestart" Switches & Then
Restarted my computer

Windows6.0-KB905866-v15-x86.msu
Windows6.0-KB941644-x86.msu
Windows6.0-KB943302-x86.msu
Windows6.0-KB943411-x86.msu
Windows6.0-KB943899-x86.msu

and it never boots up after that.
it hangs during the startup even in safe mode.
I tried the windows repair from my installation CD but couldn't solve the
problem.
it says "an update is preventing windows to startup".
I Think if I remove these updates from the cmd. of the windows installation
CD it might help but I don't know how.
i wonder if enyone could help me with this...
thanx.

You can do a System Restore to before the updates from the Vista install
DVD.

Re: Removing an Update

Well I tried that already.
my windows doesn't have any restore points
i think i've turned the system restore off days before installing those
updates.
I'm asking for a way to removing those updates from command prompt.
is there any commands that would help me so?

I don't know. Someone else here certainly might, but you could try
posting in the Windows Update group:

microsoft.public.windowsupdate

Another alternative would be to take advantage of the free support for
Windows Update problems:
