I later received (in the mail) a Windows 7 Upgrade Disc from Sony to upgrade my system from Windows Vista to Windows 7 Ultimate. The laptop had the 'System Restore' as a partition on the HDD. Update: I found my Windows 7 Media Disk and it did not help out. [ /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN (I CAN EDIT THIS LINE) I know that when I'm in the Windows Boot Manager if I press F10 instead of F8 (while highlighting Windows 7) it takes me to an 'Edit Boot Options' screen:

Is there a way to disable Deep Freeze from loading? When I selected 'Safe Mode w/ Command Prompt' I noticed that it loads the DpFrz.sys file.

The only other option left is to find my Windows 7 Media Disc (I can't find it right now) and use it to repair windows (because for some reason the repair option does not show up in the F8 screen). I tried the remainder of all the other options in the F8 screen. I have tried to select the option to NOT restart when an windows error occurs, but it still does. Oh, and side note: 'Safe Mode w/ Command Prompt' does not actually take me to a command prompt window? Perhaps because it is attempting to complete the Windows Update changes first? However, the problem is with Deep Freeze on (and now in 'Frozen' mode) the reverted changes don't stay, and I'm back into the loop of death. When I run Safe Mode, Safe Mode w/ Network, or Safe Mode w/ Command Prompt it attempts to revert the Windows Update changes. I looked online and found some solutions, but none of them seem to be working: When it reboots it attempts it again, and again, and again, etc. The update is having issues (it gets stuck at 32%, fails, and restarts my machine). I 'thawed' my machine last night and performed a Windows Update.
