For those of you who experience booting problems after applying windows XP SP2, I can refer to knowledgebase article 555185. (not currently online, being edited AFAIK)
This particular problem seems to be with certain prescott, celeron and extreme edition CPU's and certain chipsets, and will cause the initial boot to take VERY LONG TIME.
The article 555185 explains how to go around the issue, but you will have to wait until its online again.

P.S. If someone has a copy if it locally, do post it.
