Default Re: OT HEEEELP MY @#*%& COMPUTER IS *$&%%&

SP2 does not like my system. I have tried installing it 3 times, and each time, once installed it freezes on bootup. I have waited as much as 30 mins to see if it is just doing a bunch of micromanagement or sys file updates. but no way. I have to physically shut down the computer and then when I boot it says there was an error. I boot in safe mode and manage to get into windows. then I simply say 'reboot' and it boots fine. it locks up only when a cold boot is attempted. (I find it very strange that it likes rebooting from safe mode but fails on a cold boot.)

Oh well, it's not the end of the world, I too have SP1 installed and all the critical updates. My system runs fine.

nuf said, Cheers!
