Vista service pack 2

I logged on my Asus laptop this morning and the windows updater came up
saying there was a Vista service pack 2 available. it downloaded and then
restarted my computer. when it turned back in and was installing, it stopped
part way through and gave me this message.

!!0xc0000102!! 4630/76159 (imagingengine.dll)

it would not go any further with the install and the obove text was flashing
like there was a glitch... can anyone give me any hints or tips at what i
should do.. if at all possible i would like to avoid reformatting. ALOT of
programs that i have yet to back up will be lost. 12 hours of installs.

Any help would be appreciated.

0xc0000102 Could not get file information.

Either there is file record corruption or a problem with the hard drive.

Try booting from the Vista DVD and run CHKDSK /R /X /V

/R - surface scan and check file integrity, (/F is implied) fix any problems
found
/X - take volume offline for scanning
/V - verbose, report on CHKDSK's progress (Not necessary, but surface scan
takes a long time, so you have something to look at and check the progress
while you wait.)

Im having the exact same problem. Did anyone found a solution to this? please help
