When I installed SP2 it worked fine, but now I have this "Microsoft
Installer" window keeps poping up saying "Preparing to install". But nothing
ever happens with the exception of making it hard to us the computer. I
restored my computer and tryed again, but the same thing keeps happening?
Anyone got an idea?
