SP2 problem

Hi
I updated a system to SP2 (dell system). Now when system starts, it will log
into user, and log back out. This happens in safe mode and regular mode.

I had turned off the restore feature earlier fixing virus and spyware
infection, and forgot to turn the restore back on before the sp2 update. So I
can not go back to previous setting.

Any suggestions to fix this ?

Thanks
