Microsoft provides periodic updates for Windows operating system to install latest security patches and bug fixes. The updates are installed automatically from Microsoft's website, while working on your system. However, in some situations, the updates may render your system unbootable.
The problem can be due to damage to Master Boot Record or other boot files on your Windows hard drive. In such situations, all your valuable data becomes inaccessible and you come across data loss. In order to recover lost data in such cases, Windows Data Recovery Software are required, if you do not have complete backup of your significant data.
In a practical scenario of this problem, you may come across the below behavior after installing automatic updates on Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit version:
The system reboots after installing automatic updates and boot process stops halfway with Blue Screen of Death and white cursor on it.
You can not open the 'msconfig' to check system configuration.
When you boot the system in Safe Mode, it stops at the same BSOD with white cursor.
You can not restore the system. It complains that you do not have any restore point.
Holding the Shift key while booting the system, to bypass the execution of the shortcuts in Startup menu, does not do anything.
When you perform in-place upgrade, you get the below error message:
“Upgrade has been disabled- To upgrade, start the installation from Windows”
This behavior of Microsoft Windows does not let you access data from the hard drive, causing serious data loss. In such cases, find out the cause of this issue and perform Windows Recovery to fix it.
Root of the problem
This problem may occur due to corruption to the MBR on your Windows Vista hard drive. It can also be caused by file system errors.
Resolution
To sort out this behavior, you need to repair the MBR on your hard drive. It is possible by using the backup copy of MBR on your hard drive.
In case the problem can not be fixed by repairing MBR, hard drive formatting is required, which removes all the data from hard drive. In such events, you need to use Windows Recovery Software to get your data recovered. The Windows Data Recovery application work in all cases of data loss.
