Tried to install sp3 on my Media Center Edition computer yesterday and my
computer would only reboot in safe mode after installation. Had to uninstall
sp3 to be able to reboot normally. Has anyone else experienced this problem
and is there a solution?

I had a different failure. I cleaned out all temp files, did a disk cleanup,
a defrag and then reinstalled SP3. It went error free.
