Hi,
I installed SP2 onto PC running XP SP1 that had been running well for 3
yrs,
felt it was about time for SP2 and also to fix occasional crash to reboot
thinking perhaps 400Gb and 500Gb HDs needed SP2, though 400Gb partitioned
smaller as 110Gb and 262 Gbs.
SP2 install saw access denied 50% way thru, it then rolled back to prior
install.
Now I have to wait 35 secs when lcicking on My Computer before my hard
drives show up, same if I am in a prog and click in the window to choose a
drive to save to. Once the drives are there its then easy browsing.
That roll back also lost me sound, and I have a blank device manager. Also
lost me Digiguide and no doubt other progs.
After two days fiddling, registry cleans no good, more fiddling, got sound
now, Digiguide shortcut pointing to a T drive, thats on a caddy yet not
suing T drive. Silly things like that ...thanks Bill Gates.
How can I get back a normal functioning Windows Explorer ?
Steve
