    Might be time to repair the windows installation by booting from DVD/CD.

    Trying tapping the F11 key and entering the recovery manager. Then in the recovery manger go into advanced options and you should be able to try the system restore or startup repair from there.

    Did you have SP1 for vista already because this happened to a good number of people when they tried to run the SP1 update on their system. Most of the time after a restore they had no problem running the update afterwards. If you can its a good idea to use msconfig and disable any non essential startup programs and services before trying to run the update.
