I have installed SP2 and my machine crashed. It freezes at the splash
screen. No matter what I have tried the last couple of days, it's fruitless.

Help !! After several hours of intense research ... found out that my
motherboard was not compatible with SP2 (asus P4C800-E Deluxe) I then
reflashed my bios with success and now I cannot get the bios to recognize
the "raid 0 system" ... I have installed the fastrak378 utility through
booting from the XP disk, but it still doesn't recognize the hard disks and
I cannot continue from there. Do I need to update the nvidia chipset drivers
too. I just want to get into windows and uninstall the SP2.

Please help...it is most important that I get this machine up and running.
If I could just get into windows and uninstall the SP2.

I really mean it when I say thanks for any help you can give !!
