  Microsoft's Service Pack 2 drives some users buggy
Time: 10:45 EST/15:45 GMT | News Source: SF Gate | Posted By: Brian Kvalheim

There's only one problem with Microsoft's Service Pack 2, a key upgrade to the popular Windows XP operating system: It turns some computers into large, expensive doorstops.

Microsoft says that it used unprecedented care preparing the 256-MB package, which became available in mid-August, and that most problems with it -- including a tendency to freeze some computers, rendering them useless -- are known and can be remedied with some effort.
