Vista reboots after logon

I know what you mean I hate to give up but time is money. I was hoping now that you had windows starting that whatever was causing the dll error would not load in safe mode.

Did you try "Startup Repair" from the System Recovery options menu?

Did you try "Repair your computer" from the Vista installation?

As you'd probably guess, I tried start up repair several times early on and later on in this whole process.

I know about repair install for Vista but it relies on being able to boot into Windows normal mode which isn't possible here.

Anyway - thanks for your help on this. That trick of deleting the cbs.log file has already come in handy again and will do many more times I'm sure.
