I have removed the KB886904 fix and re-installed the .net framework 1.1 SP1.
The rollup couldn't install.
I've tried to download the rollup 2 manually from microsoft.com and tried to
install also manually, but he failed. Then he runs system restore.
The last message I saw in MCE was that he was installing:
Hotfix voor Windows XP (KB895961)

Then he sayd he failed and had to restore.
