It's not just slow, it hangs. No progress past "Inspecting Current Configuration". I tried uninstalling through the Control Panel and from c:\windows\... I have no idea what to do now. Thanks

I just decided to uninstall SP2. Is a slow uninstall normal? Thanks

Not a clue. According to MS, the problem occurs if the Sysprep SP1 image was created on an Intel machine, and you update it to SP2 on an AMD machine.

Hi everyone! After updating a computer to SP2, it's been BSODing right after the XP loading screen. The only way to boot XP up is through Safe Mode. I remember this having happened awhile ago, the first time I tried updating to SP2, but I don't remember what I did then to repair the install. I did some googling about this problem, and apparently it happens because the SP1 Sysprep image was prepared on an Intel machine and when the SP2 Sysprep image is applied it will try to load the Intel processor driver (Intelppm.sys). I found two solutions (I hope) to the problem 1)REG ADD HKLM\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\Intelppm" /V Start /T REG_DWORD /D 4 /F JSIFaq 2)same as the one above, but ControlSet000, "so it changed the current controlset rather than a backup one" RunPCRun Fix Which of the two should I use? What exactly do I type in when I go to edit the registry (exactly what link 1 says? REG ADD... /F) Any help would be much appreciated Thanks Edit: Forgot to include the error code STOP: 0x0000007E (0xC0000005, 0xF6A33750, 0xF795F430, 0xF795F12C) The computer was bought from a vendor (Seanix) and was upgraded 2 years ago from S754 to S939.
