Today I decided to install Service Pack 2 thinking "most of the bugs must be out by now, I mean its been 4 months. Well I was completely wrong, Service Pack 2 completely annihilated my system. I cant boot into Windows (system cant load explorer.exe
). Service Pack 2 completely trashed ALL my System Restores that I had so I cant use Safe Mode to restore my system. Now, 10:45pm here, I have to print a report out due tomorrow and I cant since Slax (the live cd i'm using) doesnt have permission to access Disc1Part2 of my hard drive due to this BS.
Tomorrow, most likely, I will have to miss school because I'm going to be on the phone for hours with Microsofts crappy tech support. I still havent tried to restore Windows to SP1 by reinstalling XP because I know it is going to say "The version of Windows you wish to install is currently a lower version than what is installed."
Now I'm most likely going to have to wipe my hard drive (60+ gb of IMPORTANT data) as well as re-install everything I had on there. I have no way to back up any of my data since I cant access Nero on Linux nor can I install anything since I am using a Live Linux CD. I cant install any partitions either which sucks even more.
