Hi, I cannot get SP2 to install. I have tried several times and each time it freezes at the Windows XP splash screen after a restart and I have to do a system repair. I have searched the Foxconn (mainboard) website and the only FAQ was to manually flash the BIOS which didn't help. Has anyone else had this problem and found a solution? My specs: Pentium 4 2.4 GHz CPU 1.0 GB PC2700 RAM Foxconn 655A01-FX-6ELRS mainboard LG DVD-ROM Phillips 8X Dual DVD Burner 2 - 80GB IDE HDD I have XP Pro corporate w/SP1 installed. Any help is greatly appreciated....
