Ok, I'm worried!

While installing the network version of SP3, I got a "Program is not responding error". I ended the install, rebooted and now can't access the server. As soon as it hit the desktop (all I see is the mouse pointer), the machine reboots. I've tried every possible boot option through F8 and all end up rebooting the machine. I am so mad. Right before it reboots, I see a BSOD flash but I can't pause the screen and it moves to fast to be read. Please help!
 
Ok is it a workstation r a server your are getting the BSOD on? Why did you deploy SP3? Have u an ERD or good recent backup?. If the usual things fail such as boot into safe mode and checking all services ect you will probably need to do a parallel install and recover your system partition from backup!

Sorry I know this souds drastic but a simular thing happened to me recently!
