Wasn't there a mention of some sort of video driver issues with SP2? It might take a little bit to do, but I would probably uninstall SP2 and see if that makes any difference.

Other than that, the usual update-the-video-driver and update-direct-x routine stuff.
 
beta of sp2??? how do i get it off?/ and before i uninstal sp2, i need to get Xp sp1... but u think if i get sp1 then i wont have that problem??? and i reinstaled it. it still the same problem.... but wut about sp2 beta??
