XP Home SP2 Update Problem with Windows Media Player

Initial install with Norton Securities 2004 already
loaded yielded Windows Media Player #10 that froze on the
1st screen loaded. AND NO FUNCTIONAL WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER!

Attempted to complete update with Windows Media Player
#10 with the same result.

Restored system before SP2.

Removed Norton Securities 2004.

Attempted SP2 install with same results.

Have restored before 2nd SP2 install, will reinstall
Norton Internet Security and sit tight until Microsoft
fixes SP2 or someone suggests something else that makes
sense.

Thanks!
