Answer 1

Hi,

1.    Are you able to boot to desktop?

I would suggest you to try performing system restore form recovery options and check if it helps:

Hope it helps.

Answer 2

I am having problems with a windows 8.1 computer. The update crashed it. I found out through the command prompt that there was an error code '0x4005'. I tried system restore, but the hard drive hadn't been security enabled, so I couldn't go on with a restore. I now am stuck and desperately need a fix. Help!

Answer 3

It has helped this time. Will there be more times to worry about???

I hope not.
