I'm running windows 2000 on 2 computers, I put service
packs 3&4 on one machine OK but when I try to install
either service pack on the other one I get a blue screen
on reboot & a message saying, If you are getting this
screen for the first time reboot your computer again if
you get this screen again remove all newly installed hard
drives hardware etc. I have to boot to safe mode &
uninstall the service pack and then the sys. runs OK
again. Any ideas why installing the service pack is
causing the boot failure???

You don't need to put service packs 3 & 4 on the same
machine. SP4 is cumulative - it includes all the fixes
from SP1 through SP3.
