My problem is the exact same.
Every time I install SP1 to Vista home premium.
First time was a few months ago when SP1 was offered. The update took ages
and then the problem started. After giving up trying to find a fix, I
uninstalled SP1 and everything was fine again. I did the same a few weeks
later and finished up uninstalling SP1 again..
2 days ago I installed SP1 and hey presto, it worked, and my PC even seemeed
faster. Although I was using it mainly for the internet.
However, this morning I started it up, and the freezing problem has
returned. I even let it slowly go through my commands and I nearly got it to
restart itself, but I had to press/hold the start button after an hour of
waiting. I had been running word 2007 and media player when it froze.
It happened on about 3 restarts, but on the fourth time it seems okay (it is
running now) I have only used the net to try and find a solution, but there
still doesn't appear to be one. I had hoped that 3 months on from the first
freeze, that microsoft would have a fix, but I can't find one.
So I may give up soon and go back to my system restore or deinstall SP1.
Don't remember which I did before.
I will search the net for solution for a while before I give in.

I have been having the same problems for two weeks - random freezes multiple
times per day - rarely if I was actively working - but it would freeze 100%
of the time if I left the computer for even a short while. After several
hours on the phone with Microsoft on May 18th and since then running all
sorts of diagnostic tests that showed no problems with the hard drive or
memory I decided to replace my hard drive since I wanted a larger one anyway
- so I cloned the old one to a new drive and since operating with only the
new drive my problems seem to be resolved and I have not experienced any
freezes or locking up.

Hope this is helpful.

I'm having the same problem as you mention here. it is driving me completely
insane, as I use my computer as many of you, to work.
it seems several times a day, my computer freezes, usually when I'm using
Outlook and windows Explorer, the windows appear whiter, then they don't
respond at all.
And when I push control alt del because I can't use the computer anymore,
this message appears:
"logon process has failed to create the security options dialog, Failure-
Security Options"
The only way to use my computer again is to push the ON button, probably
damaging my hard drive.
This is very annoying to me, and I see through google, that many people have
the same problem, and not a solution at all.
Microsoft, please give asolution!
I have a HP Pavilion dv 900o but I see another brands have the same problem,
such as Toshiba and DELL users.

I'm having this same problem also. I recently installed SP1 and after
letting the automatic updating install updates last night, I keep
getting this error. I've had to manually turn off the computer about 6
times this morning.
