    Dear users,

    Yesterday my brand-new VPCZ11X5E completed an automatic windows update, and shut down after completing the installation procedure. Since then windows will not start up properly: it stays in the start up phase (you know, with the windows 7 logo), before the log-on screen.

    Any ideas how to fix it, or should i just do a re-install (= losing some important documents :( ).

    Thanx for your help!

    If you can get in safe mode a system restore should help.

    you have to wait about 3-4 mins
    and it will be fine.
