Any suggestions or recommendations to get the machine back to normal?

Boot from your install disc
Click repair your computer
open a command prompt
type C: and press enter
type cd c:\windows\winsxs and press enter
type del pending .xml and press enter
restart your computer

This is really for if your computer won't start after a windows update but you could try it and see if it fixes your problem.
