Hi,

After over a year of stalling and dreading it, I installed SP2 today.
Despite taking all precautions, still had problems after install. Main
symptom is that the CPU stays pegged at 100% immediately from boot-up and
never stops. Makes whole system practically non-responsive.

Microsoft says they have a hotfix, but I'm not sure how to get it.
Inconvenient for me to spend a lot of time to get to them due to business
travel now. Can anyone tell me how to easily download only this one hotfix?

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=890582

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
