Try a system restore.

I had no probs on this end with...

Windows xp media centre
Norton Anti virus and Internet Security
512 DDR Ram

Everything ran smoothe as silk.

Hi all,

Dell Optiplex 270, 512 Ram, Intel 82865 Graphics, XP Pro 2002, SP2 on
large network.

McAfee virusScan Enterprise 8.0.0.912, engine 5.1.00 Real time scanning
on.


Firstly the pc froze when looking for updates. Then, found the update
and selected it 2nd time.

Got to 94% and pc froze again. Three more attempts with that Microsoft error send report screen before it finally installed and prompted to
restart the computer.

Base unit gave a couple of alarm bleeps and wouldn't restart, so did the finger on the magic button method. Once logged on, jaws message saying it was reconfiguring my system for jaws.... Then job completed.

Maybe just my imagination for now but I get the feeling there's the occasional pregnant pause when hitting certain keystrokes or tabbing around things, so I'm not too confident that things have gone sweet with
this update.

Keep wondering if 512 Ram needs a top up as the CP usage in the task
manager is sitting at 98%

Does anyone know if I can undo this update and perhaps run this process again from scratch? Any other suggestions or theories most welcome.

Jaws & McAfee weren't exactly good neighbours historically either were
they?

Kind regards,
