      Ignore post. You won't be happy crashing your machine.

      Updater say NTDLR not found or when you boot up the computer can't find NTDLR?

      Anyway... it's not like I didn't mention it... this is probably one of the worst updates. Borked quite a few machines.

      The updater keep coming out this error when i tried to re-dl, saying ntldr not found in C:\WINDOWS\SoftwareDistribution after that got alot of numbers.

      I was stupid to choose the wrong answer and it continue to install. Even cancel also nothing happened. When i restart the machine they do a 2 step uninstall for the service pack. After i restart windows again, 'NTLDR is missing press ctrl + alt + del  to restart' liao. Press so many times also come out the same message.

      Have to repair my windows with the recovery disc and luckily it works.

      Something werid is, uninstall liao the service pack 3 is still there when i look at the 'System' properties. icon_eek.gif
