Win Xp sp2 Crash

[Guest]

Updating home computer, 2.4G processor 1.5G ram 300GB hard 128M video
had 2000 on would have reinstalled but the 300 hd new and 2000 pre sp1
release so hd would not be fully recognized. Checked compatability with XP
home sp1 disk loaded reformated drive with ubuntu (which ran fine) bought new
xp home sp2 started install finishes first setup then on first reboot hangs
at splash screen. Many reformats and reloads and hours on phone with MS
support still same result.
Reformated computer which had sp1 version loaded new software (pII 450 128M
ram) loaded runs fine. Loaded XPSP1 back on other machine loads updates
complete multi reboots fine load sp2 from disk hangs at fist splash screen.
