Hi Everyone,

just this morning I attempted to Un-install the Sp2 from Add/Remove Programs.
"Big Mistake"....My whole system went wacky..
So I did System Restore again and now it works beautifully again..
I wanted to get rid of it to get my space back that it took up..but for now
I will have to leave it..I have Plenty of space on my computer which is good
so That is not a problem, I just wanted to be able to safely delete it for
good until all the bugs get resolved.
-- Just thought I would pass along my experience with the attempted
Un-install.
"Have a Great Day"

You have nothing to apologize about, Florida Gal! You're
posting correctly. Don't waste your breath on the likes
of EWT, he's just being a rude jerk.

8^) Sorry to see we're all having similar issues with
this new SP2. What was MS thinking when it released
it??? They obviously didn't work out most of the kinks.
I ended up having to reimage my computer because I
couldn't even get System Restore to launch from: Start |
Programs | Accessories | System Tools | System Restore,
nor could I do it the old fasioned way from a command
prompt. I was a very frustrated puppy after three days
of this, so I just decided to bite the bullet and
reimage. Of course, I learned the hard way, to start
backing up, because I hadn't since I've had the computer
and I lost of bunch of stuff.

Happy Trails.
