Yes, that's a possibility that Windows update caused the problem. I was trying to think through the sequence of events. The machine had been stable for quite some time and I had shut it down a couple of days ago. When it was shutting down, it installed a couple of Windows updates. Then I restarted the machine and worked on it for an hour or so and it seemed fine. Then I installed CVSNT on it, which gave the install error message, and then it asked me to restart the machine. When I restarted, Windows started to crash almost immediately or within 5 minutes or so of startup. In one of those 5 minutes where the machine did not crash, I was able to uninstall CVSNT, but that has not fixed the problem. The machine continues to crash. -- Is there a way for me to determine conclusively if it was the Windows update or CVSNT install that caused the crash? -- Now that it is crashing, is there anything I can do to fix the problem, short of reinstalling Windows again?
