Windows XP Pro and Service Pak 2..Freeze ups.Hello: I recently installed Windows XP Pro from a disc that included SP-2.
The computer has started freezing up completely, requiring me to hit the reset button on the tower to get the system to re-boot. It will be fine again for a short while but ultimately freeze up solid again. I noticed the hard drive light remains on, un-blinking just a solid on light. I've searched and found some ways to remove sp-2, but none of them work for me. I type in certain command lines but no joy, etc... Any help getting sp-2 off my computer would be greatly appreciated. Thank You Paul. No help in this matter?

Why do you think removing SP2 will fix your problem? -- Best Regards Ron Lowe MVP - Windows Networking Hello: I did a goggle search for problems similar to mine. ALOT of the
results of the search indicated that people found SP-2 was at the bottom of the problem. Problems ranging from freeze ups, to printer spool up, and alot of other performance degrading things. I have certainly noticed going from Windows XP Pro with no service pak's to WinXP Pro SP-2 that my computer is much less stable... Too bad I can't remove it.
