Okay, I've installed the SP2 (which went fine). Then I
installed the GDI+. Now I keep getting prompted to
restart, even though I've already done that. How do I
unscrew this. THX, J

"Even" suggestion:

After you install Windows XP Service Pack 2, your computer restarts
continuously?

Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 873161

The information in this article applies to:
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 (SP2)
Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition Service Pack 2 (SP2)
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 (SP2)
Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition 2005

SYMPTOMS
After you install Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2), you are
prompted to restart the computer. When the computer starts, but before you
can log on, the computer begins to continuously restart.

CAUSE
This problem occurs if you have a UMAX scanner driver installed on your
computer when you install Windows XP SP2.

RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, start the computer in Safe Mode, remove the UMAX
driver, remove Windows XP SP2, and then reinstall Windows XP SP2.

Interesting, but I don't have a UMAX scanner attached.
The system is not restarting continuously. What I'm
getting (continuously) is a dialog box that says that in
order to complete the patch/upgrade process, the system
needs to be rebooted. It also prompts me to restart now
or to restart later. I've rebooted three times since, and
it still comes back.


THX,
J
