Its me, Evolution
Intersting...so you can't even get to a C: prompt from the boot diskettes?
When does the prompt for the Service Pack 2 CD comes on? At this point, I
highly suggest you slipstream the Windows Professional and SP2 suggested
earlier to get to the recovery console. Of course, you are going to have to
do this on a friend's computer. Here is an step-by-step guide to doing this:

I am not sure if it is asking for just the Service Pack or for the XP
Professional with the Service Pack CD. You can of course try using a CD-RW
and burning just the service pack on top and try it out. If that doesn't
work, then rewrite the CD with the extracted Service Pack. Either way, I
hope you can get back to the C: prompt so you can navigate to the directory
I mentioned on my other post to uninstall SP2.
Have you tried booting into Safe Mode by any chance?
