\boot\bcd + 0x000000f error when starting up after windows update

Hello all,

I have two laptops with a problem that arises every time windows update
installs an update. Even uninstalling an update causes this. One of the
laptops is a Macbook with Vista as the only OS, the other one is a
Fujitsu-Siemens laptop.

The Windows Boot Manager complains that it cannot read the boot
configuration data.

File: \boot\BCD
Status: 0x000000f

I can get this fixed using the vista dvd repair option whics takes care of
the problem in 5 minutes, but the problem reappears when updates are
installed / uninstalled.


Thanks.

Repairing the OS is not the problem, the problem is that next time I install
an update the problem reappears.

So this did not solve my issue.

Repairing it is not the problem. The problem is when windows is updatet the
next time the problem reappears.
