XP Pro SP2 Install Problem

I have a problem installing XP Pro SP2 upgrade on Win2K Pro. The
installation went OK until I reboot and XP does not load. I get the Safe
Mode, Last Valid Configuration setup, etc screen. None of the modes loads XP
successfully. I think I may have forgotten to disable the anti virus software
eVirus before I installed. Is there any utility to find out which
application may be preventing xp from loading correctly?

Thanks,
Brett

Hi Brett

You may be able to perform a 'Repair' install of XP. Have a look at the
following article by Michael Stevens:

"How to Perform a Windows XP Repair Install"

What point do you reach in the loading?
