computer re-starts continuously

Hi I have a gatewy i purchsaed in 2002. I was trying to install windows service pack 2 which failed, at the end i got an error message which i do not have the number. However it was for some type of securtity issue. Now i cannot get into windows, the computer keeps powering off and on after seeing the windows xp logo on the screen. I have tried safe mode and the recovery console with no luck. I have not had any issues up until yesterday. I would appreciate any advice or input. Thanks.

 

Have you looked at this http://support.microsoft.com/KB/875350

and followed the Recovery Console guide on how to remove SP2?

 

i'll try it thank you

 

the link you gave me worked thanks again, i removed the sp2 update and my computer is working fine again

 

I'm happy for you, glad to help you get your system back.
