I have upgrade my WinXP with SP2.

I have encounter big problem with the Media Player 9.

When I try to play any 2 video format files , it takes about 2-3 minutes to
switch from the first video to the second video.

and I feel so confuse that sometims, when I play the WMV format with Media
Player, my computer restart.

Can I uninstall the SP2? will there any drawback? Before installing SP2, my
computer's performance is ok, and now, the performance is slow down alot...

Hey, have tried following tips by one of the MVP.

Basically, it suggests to defrag your try. Might be worth a try.
