|I have had this for months now I just didn't want to fix it until recently,
| every time I try to update my computer from either SP1 or just XP HomeE. to
| SP2 my computer updates just fine, nothing wrong during install or update,
| but as soon as I try to reboot my computer my computer freezes at the bootup
| screen. I even left the computer on for 2 days to see if it would eventually
| move the little bar that represents sp2 booting up but it stayed in the same
| position those 2 days. Can any one help me out?
