After installing the latest windows update and restarting my machine just crashes and restarts this has happened the 2 times I've downloaded the update.

Running Windows XP Home Edition
Amd Athlon 1 gig
128 RAM

Any one offer help ?
Apart from switch to Linux which I intend to do soon.

Can you boot into Safe Mode and uninstall the fix?

I went back to last known good config from the F8 Menu so it's ok but I'd like to know why it ****ed up my pc ?
