I sure hear that story a lot about that "UPGRADE" :mad:
Do you have the restore disk?

you should be able to remove it on "add/remove programs" found in the control panel.
did you download sp2 from microsoft or use a disc? if it's a disc how old is it? if you can, try getting all the updates via microsoft before you remove it to see if that helps.

• Use the Add or Remove Programs tool in Control Panel

If you're running Windows XP you can go to "System Restore" and have the system revert to a configuration at a time in the past. Just choose a date/time prior to you installing the upgrade, and you'll be set.

Ok I will try those ideas when I get home. My other question is, Why does it make my computer run like that?????? What the hell is going on??? :mad:

how much memory do you have? also, some security software can mess with it.

that should be fine. when I built mine it worked fine for a while. then I started to get the blue screen. swapped the ram out . no problems since.
one site I checked, recommends doing a complete virus scan before downloading sp2. is this related to your internet problems on monday?

Turn up the heat in your house if your PC keeps doing that...freezing :)

What's going on....Is everyone having computer problems at home? Mine keeps freezing up and kicking me out of my home page all the time. :skull: Gonna back up my files and do a restore this weekend. Hopefully that will work.
