Greetings! Got back from vacation today and there waiting
for me was XP SP2 via AU. So just relaxing, I download
and install. Mistake. Oh, everything went great for the
download (96MB) and the install. However, on the reboot,
yikes! XPSP2 Windows does not like my wireless connection
or hardware (strangely enough, Microsoft equipment!! Base
station and wireless network card for my laptop), hence
no network, no email, no Internet. No fix either as the
message indicated my wireless network was not compatible
with "this version of Windows" ie XPSP2! I was freaking a
little, mainly cuz there was NO RESTORE POINT! Apparently
XPSP2 deletes all the restore points??? I don't know but
there was not a single restore available. Then, as I
looked through the Add/Remove Programs list, I didn't see
XPSP2...but then found it...whew! Deleted it, Thank you
Father! And PTL, my system was back, somehow, back to
normal, just as before! Weird. I don't think I can
install XPSP2?! Why wouldn't my Microsoft Broadband
Wireless Router/Base Station and laptop card not be
compatible with XPSP2? Any ideas, comments???
