Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2

I formatted my dell and installed windows XP (came with my system), installed
Norton Systemworks along with spybot and ad-aware. Did some windows update
about 80 or so then the problem began. I went back into window update to
make sure I got all of them and there was one more Windows XP Service Pack 2.
It started installing then all of a sudden I get a popup from Service Pack 2
setup that said Access is denied then I said ok. Another popup box that said
service pack 2 installations did not complete. Select ok to undo the changes
that have been made. Selected ok and it did its thing. Then another popup
box saying service pack 2 installations did not complete. Windows XP has
been partially updated and may not work properly. And it was right. I
rebooted then got a blue screen that said STOP 00000 (not sure how many
zeros) the session manager initialization system process terminated
unexpectedly with a status of 000 (don’t know how many zeros). The system has
been shutdown. The computer now keeps rolling from the blue screen to the
windows logo, the dell screen, blue screen etc. The desktop never loads.
Any help would be appreciated.

If you can do it, try it. Otherwise you'll have to use the RC.

| Thank you for the link. I noticed at the bottom of the page under references
| method 1 it say I can remove SP2 in add/remove programs. If I can get into
| safe mode can I do that in place of all the stuff before it? Also once I can
| delete it how do I get SP2 back on. I was under the assumption that I needed
| SP 2?
| Thanks
