How to remove XP SP2

Attempted to upgrade to XP SP2 but it failed. The next day the PC starts blue screening to a 0x00000050 page fault in non paged area after loading documents and settings. This happens in safe mode also. Is there away to back out what ever loaded from SP2?
Thanks

If above fails then try the Recovery Console method as described below:
