Asus F551c Problems

I have recently purchase an Asus F551C and today it began to update windows and I thought all was well until my computer has frozen on a screen that says "failure to configure windows updates reverting changes" however upon researching what to do most people say change your settings however I can't do that as I can't even get onto the computer, is there any way to get into the laptop by rebooting in safe mode? If so how do I do that

Hi. Yes there is - to access windows via Safe Mode requires you to repeatedly tap F8 JUST BEFORE windows begans to load. From there you can use System Restore to get rid of the corrupted updates.
