    Hi,
    I have a Cf-M34 Mk4 that has been working great until XP SP3 came along. After installing the update I get the BSOD and have to reboot into Safe mode and uninstall the update to get the OS back. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    lol... wipe/reload... I can't say how many computers at my company had this problem when we put SP3 on... after we did a fresh wipe/reload then put SP3 on from the getgo it was fine. I was after installing SP3 on machines that were already clogged with crap that messed up.

    I had done a clean install not an upgrade and SP3 is the second update that came through. I am going to wipe it again, only load the ethernet driver and then do the updates in case there is a conflict with a Panasonic driver
