Administrators AWS Posted March 21, 2013 Administrators Posted March 21, 2013 On the 15th of March I logged off my computer and it began an install of part 1 of 5. It successfully completed the install of part 1 but went into a loop at part 2. I allowed it to run for 14 hours then, reluctantly forced a power down. I was pleasantly suprised when I was able to restart in Safe Mode and, performed a system restore to the 14th. I noticed the my free version of Avast antivirus had disappeared.....not disabled but no longer there. I reinstalled the Avast, completed my work for the day shut down and went into an install part 1 of 4 update (presumably the 4 parts from the previous day that failed to install) and immediately went into the same loop. This problem has persisted for the last 5 days with the same results, fixes, etc.. Can anyone tell me how to resolve this issue???? What is the protocol when an update install goes into a loop? This happened to me with Windows XP and rendered a laptop unusable after I forced a power down during an update install (the computer wouldn't even start in Safe Mode after that one).
