Windows 7: How to Prevent the Mouse from Waking your PC
Thanks again!

thanks,

I would be worried about it... Does the bios update say anything about SP2 compatability?
<font color="darkblue">Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to start Task Manager.
Click File, and then click New Task (Run...).
In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
Locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESystemCurrentControlSetServicesRpcSs
On the right side of the viewing pane, right-click ObjectName, click Modify, type LocalSystem in the Value data box, and then click OK.
Restart your computer
Use one of the previous methods to remove Windows XP SP2 from your computer.</font>
Thank God, it gave me back a normally responding computer after reboot and the subsequent uninstall of SP2 proceeded quickly without a problem.
I have the P4P800 Deluxe (not 'E'), with Intel P4 2.8E CPU, and I updated the BIOS to the latest from the ASUS web site. When I run the Intel utility, it says that I have:
CPU Stepping: 3
CPU Revision: B
I was expecting to see a number for the revision. Is the 'Stepping' the number you are referring to (that needs to be 8 or higher)?
Thanks,
Nathan
I am in the bios, do not know how to turnoff cache.

I managed to update my bios to 1019 but my windows xp sp2 keeps on locking up when i try to copy files that are too big. What's going on??
Before sp2, i used sp1 and when i tried copying files that are too big, i get a kernel_data_inpage error and a blue screen stating atapi.sys something.
I'm using P4P800 with a Pentium4 2.8E Ghz processor and 512DDR, with 80Gig HDD.
Please help.
