Windows XP SP2 update caused boot failure

My system was performing the auto update.
SP2 was being installed, msg indicated it was successful,
however the message also said REBOOT required.

System was unable to reboot until I selected SAFE MODE

when I returned to update page to try to continue with last
step I received this message:

[Error number: 0x8007043C]
The website has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are
trying to view. The options provided below might help you solve the problem.

I have no clue what went wrong.

> I have no clue what went wrong.

Still cannot get the update to continue.
Anyone know what my options are now?
Thx

Means: ERROR_NOT_SAFEBOOT_SERVICE.
Translation: You need a service which is not available in safe mode.

You have to be in normal mode to continue with Windows Updates.

Thank you for your response.
At least now I know there was nothing I could do.
I restored to every check point XP had created without success.
I also tried XP recovery from install disk without success.
I am presently rebuilding the machine from "restore all
factory settings" recovery disk. In a few minutes my machine
will "look" like new. Meaning nothing I installed after I
bought it will be there until I re-install it. (
