After I downloaded service pack 4 on my windows 2000, a
few of my programs will not work properly. How do I
uninstall the service pack? When I look on "add/remove"
all the service packs are listed as hot fix KB828035 ect.
Which one is the service pack 4?

Thanks,

Look for the uninstall directory in C:\WINNT\ it should be
called "$NtServicePackUninstall$" under that directory
is "spuninst" from there run the spuninst file.
 
Unless you checked the box to allow SP4 to have an uninstall option at the
time of the installation of SP4, the only way to remove SP4 is to completely
reformat the hard drive and reinstall Win2000, followed by all your
programs. That is why it is always useful to have a backup before installing
a service pack.
