I don't understand what you mean by that last line, "normal and same thing."
Do you mean that you're now back to square one in that your computer starts
up fine but it is now without the patch(es) ? If so, consider just
downloading the "worm thing" patch by itself for now from this Microsoft
page: http://tinyurl.com/h84v
and thereafter, just install your remaining 17 patches one at a time.

Apologies if I've misunderstood your problem,
Ian.
