Hi,

Yesterday my pc crashed and it had to restart, when it restarted it began doing a update which I have been "later-ing" and it said preparing to configure windows, then configuring windows And it would start at 50% then go and stop at 58%, then say preparing to configure windows! and it looped like that for a while, then I thought something was broken so I turned of the the computer, them turned it back on, well it did the loop! again, then finally it said: wwindoes update failed, undoing changes, it's sat like that for 30 or40 min, then finally restart the took me ti the login screen, I choose my user and put in my pass and normally what would take me to the tile screen to me to a black screen, it's been sitting like this for a while and I really hope that it will work,

Any help?

Specs (that I can say without checking on the computer)

It's a laptop: European (I'm in the us, got it on a trip) HP pro book 450 with windows 8.1 (came with 8)

I did notice I had about 11.7 gb left of space

Well, you screwed things up by turning off the computer. They mean it when they say "don't turn off the computer." Sometimes shit happens though. Have you tried booting to safe mode? If you can boot to safe mode and restart, you might be ok. But you might not as well. You will probably have to at least run windows repair, possibly refresh, reset or reinstall.
