I recently built a new computerand reinstalled XP and downloaded sp1. But
when I download and attempt to install sp2 the computer boots, starts to load
windows than shuts off and tries to restart. I tried this twice with same
results. Any help would be greatly appreiciated.

I have the exact same problem. After doing all the driver and software
updates, and installing SP2, windows will not load. It loads fine in safe
mode, but not in regular bootup. I have been working on this for a year now,
and recently one of the security updates downloaded from windows update
crashes my machine. If you get a solution to your problem, I would love to
know what it was.
