SP2 update

[Terry]

Since I update to SP2, my computer sometimes freezes and locks-up on
start-up. Is anyone experiencing that problem? If so, what is the fix.

Thanks,
Terry

Hi Terry

Any error messages or entries in Event Viewer that may help to find out what
the problem is?

Don't know what event viewer is. Please explain.
Thanks

Hi

From Start>Run type

eventvwr.msc

then click on 'Application' in the left column. Do you see any errors in
the right hand pane? Then try clicking on 'System' as well - any errors
there?
