Continual reboots or can only boot into Safe Mode after installing WinXP SP3?
Workarounds:
1. Boot into Safe Mode and rename INTELPMM.SYS to INTELPMM.OLD.
2. After booting into Safe Mode:
Start | Run | (copy/paste) sc config intelppm start= disabled | OK | Reboot into normal (Windows) mode.

I am able to run SP3 Safe Moode...is there anything I can do to solve the
problem from here?
However, if I remove SP3 completely, I will be back to XP SP1 - and I need
to have at least SP2 to be able to run quite a few of my programs. Is there
any possibility to eventually install SP2 again...does not get that
alternative in Windows Update.
