    Never has any problems with xp sp2. Use it on 4 pcs at home and another mother in law has. Have a comobintion fo different hardware/software and so far no problems accept with my server using last nvidia driver but I assume it the drivers fault as the old one work fine.

    No longer a user, goodbye folks. PLEASE delete my account. Thank you
  • I guess there will come a stage when MS XP updates will only work if you have SP2 installed?

    Yep, already some dlds are SP2 only (Welsh Language Pack for example)

    My 1st Post,     Anywhere on any forum ;D ;D


    Be warned: those poor saps (hee Hee) with Dial-up will have to put some serious coal into the modem & build up steam, Its a staggering 270 Meg (ish) D/L.
    I am one of the saps you refer to, yes it took a while to download SP2 into my computer but it only took seconds to delete, it's crap. :D
