Windows system won't load and is stuck loading SQL security pack 3update

I have been trying to load this update for days and kept coming up with Error code 737D so I finally had enough and tried several things, the last thing I did was turn auto updates on and for some reason my system restarted.

Well I have been stuck trying to get back into my system and it juust keeps trying to instal 3 of 3 security updates SQL pack 3 then it restarts.

IT is stuck in a loop.

my system is VIsta PRemium and my operating system is QUad 2.66 GHZ

Hey all,

I copied this from another discussion group and it worked on my computer. I
am running XP Professional.

To resolve this issue, do the following:

1. Go to Run, type regedit, and click ok, or press Enter.
2. Back up your registry, if you don't know how to do this, google it...
3. In Regedit, go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL.1\Setup]
[Note that if you have multiple instances of MSSQL installed, the reg key
might be different for you]
4. find the Resume REG_DWORD, and change its decimal value from 1, to 0.
5. install the update, and restart the machine.

If you don't want to install this update using the automatic update
(WUAUCLT), you can download the hotfix directly from microsoft, just google
"download KB970892 ". you will still need to manually change the registy
"Resume" value, or else the hotfix will fail to install.


Best of luck!

P.S. This is a lot faster and easier than calling Microsoft Customer Support. Trust me, I tried. Three times.
