Re: Think I made a mistake

I am gun shy when it comes to SP2. I downloaded on one of my XP
Professional computers and then Win refused to boot. I finally used one of
my XP Prof upgrade disk to get it back. Could not use the restore cd that
came with the computer in that it wanted to restore to original thus losing
all the installed programs/data. It was a painful 2 days.
