I am also having problems with installation. It will back up files and etc.
but freezes every time when it is backing up the registry. Cntrl-Alt Del
does not work. Have to hold power button until computer turns off. Then
when it starts up it has to run scan disk. Very annoying. Now when I turn
my computer on it says it is missing rundll. Maybe I'll wait until MS
perfects there update better but am not happy with the way that Service Pack
2 is not functioning. Any suggestions? Thanks for your help.
