There's a million possible reasons.  It could be a virus or spyware that doesn't get along so well with SP2.  It could be that your firewall or anti-virus software needed to be updated.  It could be that you have bad sectors on your harddrive and some of the newer files that were installed are occupying those sectors.  It would be helpful if you were more specific about how the computer "crashes".  Are you not even able to get to the desktop?  Do you get any error messages?\n\nAt any rate, I think it is most likely that it is a driver problem.  You might want to visit the website of your computer's manufacturer, find the support section for your particular model, and look into any drivers or documents they might have for you.  You might also need to look into updated drivers for external devices like printers, scanners, digital cameras, etc., from the device's respective manufacturer website.

The reason your system crashes is because you are using a bootleg XP version. If your system would it had a legit OS, you should been ok.

Your computer could have been heated too much.Try working on it after shutting down your pc for an hour or two.

sp2 is for home use too ... some programs or sites require it

Go to Run and type shutdown -a . This will stop the shutdown sequence. However this is not the definite solution because it will pop up the next time you start your computer. It seems you have a Blaster worm that triggers this event. Update your PC to SP2 and the problem will be solved.

When you turn on your computer check out the progress bar. If it's green, you're running SP1. If it's blue, you're running SP2.

You can remove it >>> I am typing this on a computer that had SP2, I uninstalled it a long time ago. Go to add/remove programs. The only reason I unistalled SP2 is for P2P.

I'm assuming you meant crash. When asking computor questions it's a good idea to put what OS you are using and a few more details \n\nTry restoring your computor to a prevous date\n\nWin98-Reboot to DOS or command prompt whatever it says and at the c prompt type in scanreg/restore\n\nWinXP go to start/programs/accessories/system tools/system restore

well first of all good discription, to resolve any problem v should have this kind of discription. as u said u r using kaspersky, chances of virus is very less. \nif the problem is recently started then this might becauz if any hardware conflict, two hardware could be using same port or something like that.\nsecond check ur cd rom and HD conncetion on should be master and second should be slave (see jumper setting) if both r connected on same IDE.\ngo to cmos and run defult setting option this may set the default option for all ur hardware.\nmore over the SP2 of xp have some bugs the reason could be that too cauz it have internal firewall that blocks many thing and may be that's y ur system crashing.\n\nfinally as u said u get blue screen the another reason could be ur RAM is corrupted, try to remove ur RAM anc clean the connector part by a pencil rubber and fixed it again, try changing RAM may be it could solve problem\n\nenjoy!!!\ni rust if i rest\njava\nbye

no you wont be able to restore your computer with xp pro or home since you have sp2 installed on your computer.  the best way would be to back up your data somewhere else and then format it with the cd and reinstall the OS

That's simple.  It does more.  Windows XP with SP2 has a firewall which also slows things down.  \n\nWatch out, Windows Vista will be much slower.  Again, it does more. \n\nI prefer to pick my own anti-virus, anti-spyware and firewall solutions.  I uninstall ALL messenger thing that I do not use.  I minimize the Startup programs.   \n\nGood luck

I did, but my computer just needed more memory installed.  Check if you have enough memory on your computer...if you are having it freeze up or move real slow, that might be what it is.  Good Luck.
