When I install KB2859537 on my Windows 7 X64 machine I get a BSOD during reboot either trying to boot normally or trying to boot in safe mode. Had to restore the primany disk three times now to get the PC bac. Can someone report to MS tech please.Anyone else seen this
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Glad you sorted your problem out, but this is not the same one as I have with a 6B BSOD on every reboot with any F8 option.
Worked with MS again yesterday to remove the KB package using the command line via the W7 DVD, but even having done that the BSOD still happens on reboot. Certainly looks like the damage is done on installation, prior to the reboot.
I spent 12 hours solving this problem. What was happening: the update corrected an exploit a rootkit virus was using. Because it was fixed on reboot, the rootkit would not be able to function and thus locked up the computer from starting properly. By removing the rootkit virus, I was able to install the security update and the computer no longer crashed.

Again anyone? Especially anyone with the 0x freeze up error? Please I need cases in order to get to the bottom of the issue. I will set up a free support call for you at no charge.
