Default Laptop lost power during an XP SP2 update
After a failed update to sp2, I now get a blue screen only. Can I install sp2 again from safe mode off a CD to fix it or what do I need to do?

reformat - or maybe repair is my guess.... Maybe stick with SP1 for now and next time try with a slipstreamed SP2?

This happend to my friend at college, she was totally freakin, out. All you need to do, IS

Restart the comp,
and restart the Sp2 installation
It worked for her, but maybe it was doing a critical install when it crashed!
