To stop Windows shutting down type 'shutdown -a' in a MSDOS command prompt. Have it ready beforehand so when it starts you only have to switch to the window and hit return. Press the up key to recall the last command so its ready again for the next time it tries. This should allow you to get online long enough to de balster it.

To get a MSDOs command prompt press 'WINDOWS' and R and type cmd <RETURN>

'WINDOWS is the key with a windows logo on it near the CTRL key bottom left.
