| Vista Home Premium 64 bit | Vista Home Premium X64 not booting after sp2 instal Last night i installed sp2 on my Vista Home Premium X64. The install seemed to be in finish fine but after the restart the "Windows Error Recovery" screen comes up saying " Windows has failed to start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause" vista will not boot up it goes to the black screen with the bar saying Microsoft Corporation it freezes. When i tried to boot is safe mode it gets to "Loaded: \Windows\system32\drivers\crcdisk.sys" and freezes. When i tried to boot it in "last good configuration" it freezes at the same screen as a regular boot. When i try to boot from the dvd a black screen comes up saying "windows is loading files..." with a white bar when it finishes loading the screen goes black and nothing happens. As you can see im in a bit of a pickle any help would be greatly appreciated. |

| Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Vista Home Premium X64 not booting after sp2 instal Can you try safe mode with command prompt and enter rstrui.exe to see if you can restore to a time before SP2. Were you experiencing any disk related crashed before you installed the service pack? |
