Recently a windows update has caused some Dell computers and possibly others to hang during an Update.

Wait for a good while and if it still seems stuck Hard Reset using the computers power button or Reset button. BE READY, as the computer is loading keep hitting F8. You will see an option come on the screen titled SAFE MODE and below it an option titled "Last known good configuration" Choose "Last known good configuration" and your computer should boot up. If it doesn't then I'm sorry I could not help.

**Be warned that hard resetting your computer could lead to data loss. I think you'll be fine though, but just in case I warned you. The F8 Last known good configuration at boot doesn't harm anything.
