Had new wireless NIC Drivers that I thought it would be just peachy to load so, I wouldn't have errors pop up on boot up. Removed the old drivers rebooted and low and behold M$ got pissed because they couldn't check if I had any rights to WinXP Home (no internet connection). So, after plugging in my modem telco cable it kept failing the activation. So, I had to call up the M$ hotline and not much problems except for having to type in the 30 some odd digit product activation and then repeating it to the operator dude. Finally got it back up and running with the new drivers and no error messages on boot up.
I'll be very wary about removing those NIC Card drivers again. The only other thing I replaced was the sound card. Although, could have been a few driver updates...namely nvidia.
