hello everyone
I just installed sp2, and then it asked to reboot, now i cant start up my
computer (currently using another one). Everytime it tries to boot up, when
the windows loading screen goes on, after a second it resets on its own and
tries to boot again and again and again and safe mode doesnt work either.
Any suggestions ? Computer is a pentium4 1.5ghz 1st gen cpu intel mobo.
