Computer Crash after Update

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I am using XP Pro and the automated update just downloaded the recent updates
so i told it to install them. Then it restarted the computer after prompting
me to.

I am now getting a "c000021a The Windows Logon Process terminated
unexpectedly with a status of 0xc0000018 The system has been shutdown"

I have tried to get into Safe Mode, but it still give the error to go into
safe mode, I went into the Recovery Console, but not sure if I can do
anything useful in here. I was thinking of trying a repair, but would prefer
not. Is there a command line version of the XP roll-back feature, or does
anyone know how to fix this problem in general?

Thanks, James
