Hi Nice upgrade on the features of Win SP2 but, after
installing it, my TCP/IP started acting up and overall any
program or window I open hangs up can't even ping to
another PC! I tried to uninstall SP2 from the ADD/REMOVE
PROGRAMS but system hungs at the inspecting configuration
window. I am not able to Ctrl/Alt/Del or shutdown or
nothing. Well I can unplug the AC and DC to turn it off
but that is it! any suggestions before reinstalling the
system?

Thanks
Tony

Use the System Restore process
Click Start, click Run, type %SystemRoot%\System32
\restore\rstrui.exe in the Open box, and then click OK.
Click Restore my computer to an earlier time, and then
click Next.
Click the date that you installed Windows XP SP2, and
then click Installed Window XP Service Pack 2 in the
Restore Point box.
Click Next, and then follow the instructions on the
screen to remove Windows XP SP2.


This worked for me
