Windows shutdown during update to 4.1

Hey guys,

My Xperia Arc S was just updating via the PC Companion when windows popped up with a reboot.

I was typing at the time and for some ridiculous reason windows thinks typing is considered as accepting the reboot and rebooted my PC in the middle of the Update.

Now my phone boots with a Warning sign on the screen and immediately shuts down again. When I connect it to my PC it just does the same thing but over and over again.

I have tried taking the battery out but well that didnt help.

Any idea how I can fix this now?

Thanks!
