I HAVE JUST RESTORED MY PC, AMD 1800+ WITH 1.5GB RAM. RUNS FINE WITH ALL
UPDATES AND SP1 ON MY HOME NETWORK. HOWEVER WHENEVER I INSTALL SP2 UPDATE I
GET BLUE SCREEN ERROR MESSAGE (AND FORCED INTO SAFE MODE) OF
"IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" AND ASKS ME TO CHECK NEW HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE
INSTALLATIONS. NO NEW HARDWARE INSTALLED JUST SP2 UPGRADE. I HAVE DISABLE
CACHE/SHADOWING IN BIOS AS SUGGESTED ON BLUE SCREEN, I HAVE EVEN RE-SAT MY
CARDS ON MB TO NO AVAIL. CAN SOMEONE HELP ME IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY. IF I
REMOVE SP2 EVERYTHING IS RUNNING OK AGAIN! BUT I NEED SP2 FOR CERTAIN
ANTIVIRUS SOFTWARE ETC. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY GUIDANCE.

1. Please don't use all caps on the Newsgroups as it's considered rude and
shouting. Just letting you know in case this is your first time here.

2. See if anything written here helps -

3. Are you aware that SP3 has been out for sometime for Windows XP?

Bios on default and normal clockspeed.
