Protected EAP - For wireless

Ivy,

No worries...

Computers can be as troublesome as cars... :P

Back to your Q.

If you get a BSOD while trying to install SP1a, it could be due to the following:

1. Anti virus is running - disable it n reboot
2. Worms or viruses
3. Corrupted Windows installations

Ok... the first option is definately out... coz i have disabled my anti virus thingy.

2nd.. maybe and 3rd also maybe... But, as for the 3rd option, i installed the windows using the original copy provided when i bought my lap top..
So how? What if it's the second one???? :o

Ivy,

If it is the 2nd one... u need to boot from a bootable cdrom containing an anti virus program to scan n clean out any worms or viruses.

Worse, u may need to backup all your important files onto an external drive n reformat n reinstall from scratch. Then, install SP1a.

BTW, can u confirm that u have SP1a installed already? U can check from the System properties (right click My Computer, Properties).

Nopes... the SP1 is not there.. only written Win XP Home Edition version 2002... :(

Ok... I guess u need to reinstall from scratch n update to SP1a + other patches then only load back all your stuff.

BTW, u may need to update Office XP patches too.

But anyway, SP2 for Windows XP is OUT... a whopping 250MB download.
