| I have installed SP4 on 3 systems now, without a single problem. These all were systems with a fully updated W2K + SP3 installation. Do you perhaps have any piece of exotic hardware installed, that could lead to incompatibility problems (driverproblems)? I don't know for sure when W2K starts logging, but you might want to take a look at the system's logs (in the administrative tools).
