computer crash after SP2 install

K

I followed all recommended steps to download & install
SP2, upon restarting I first get the Windows XP startup
screen, then a gray screen then get a blue screen with
the message:
STOP: c0000135. This application has failed to start
because winsrv was not found. Reinstalling the
application may fix this problem.
It will not read the reinstall CD and no commands will
work. Have called MSN support & all phone lines are full
(bad sign....) Has anyone experienced this & can anyone
help?????

I had the exact same problem yesterday, and everytime I
went into the recovery console, it would ask for an Admin
password, which it would not except, what I had to do, is
act like I was going to install the software, select the
repair option from there (which actually errored out the
first time through) but once it restarted the
install/repair process, everything seems to be working
fine now. We did find a couple of programs that had to be
re-installed to make all their registry settings/links
correct, but that was better than starting from scratch.
