Rather than checking each individual update, if you have a System Restore
point prior to the SP2 installation, might be simpler to use that, to remove any doubts Jon "k2lim" wrote in message ...

For a start I'd say 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it' - if you're not getting any more problems then leave them. If you are though the only safe way is to check on the MS update page & see what each hotfix is for - you'll probably find some of them apply to your system & you can remove the ones which don't (though I've always understood hotfixes are particular to the installed system) k2lim wrote: *Hi all, I downloaded Win XP SP2, had some problems with it and decided to do an uninstall.
