Can't stop and uninstall Deep Freeze

I am trying to uninstall Deep Freeze 2000 in Windows XP, but I can't!

I can't even open the Deep Freeze window because it stops responding! I can't get into Safe mode with Windows XP when I press F8 while booting. It opens a menu to choose with which device to boot the PC.

The only way to uninstall deep freeze is to first thaw the workstation and then run the original installation package. Anything else you do will result in your changes being reverted, just like any other changes. If you're having trouble viewing the window on the workstation itself, try thawing from the management console.

If something is broken with your deep freeze installation (I've never seen this), the only thing you could do is re-install the operating system from original media (not located on the frozen volume).

Pull the hard drive out (or boot from a CD), then navigate to the Deepfreeze program folder, and rename the executable from .exe to .old. Reboot, and it won't start up. Then you should be able to uninstall it
