I just restarted my laptop to finish installing a Windows update and now it is stuck on please wait.
I have tried a system restore but there is only one restore point in the list and it does not work for some reason...
I also tried to do a refresh but it asks me for media. I plug in the usb I used to install windows 8 a while and go and says that the media failed to load.
I'm kind of stuck on options now. I can't boot and I can't restore and it seems I cant format either!
Is there anything anything else I can do to get things going?!
I'm running Windows 8 on a dell xps 14 ultrabook. Win 8 is installed on an msata drive and booting using EFi.
Answer
Boot from an Win8 setup DVD/USB thumb drive, to the repair options and select Command Prompt. Now run this command:
DISM /image:C:\ /cleanup-image /revertpendingactions
(replace C: with the drive where you installed Windows 8)
This reverts all pending operation of Windows Update. Are you now able to boot?
