I have installed SP2 on three of my four XP machines with no problem.
However I have a problem on the forth machine. The install gets to the
"creating restore point" and fails there. A window says " Unable to read
from or write to the database". I looked at the installation history and it
gives the error code 800710D9. I have gone to the SP2 support pages and
can't find any reference to this error. I have tried to install under safe
mode, and gone to www3.telus.net/dandemar/spackins.htm and followed the
procedure there, with the same result. I have not been able to contact MS,
all methods of contact are very busy.
Any ideas? All help will be appreciated.
