Well perhaps by that time they will have a patch or two to solve some people's present problems included in the update.

Is that the royal "we"? ;)

"We" got rid of SP2 last Saturday as it and my printer took an immediate dislike to each other. So I hope that I can get a fix before next April.

If not, just turn off automatic updates ;)

Ive also found it screws up my bluetooth, Nice one Microsoft :mad:

Re: Merged: Windows XP SP2 - discuss it here!
 

Did the same for me, however, I followed the guide on here and Bluetooth is working perfectly now

I'm not touching it with a bargepole yet :dozey:

Re: Merged: Windows XP SP2 - discuss it here!
 

I just installed it (sp2) today....I did have a couple of problems, one of them being I can either have zone alarm or xp firewall, not both
and my haupgage card went back to it's original settings, reset them and thats ok
which should I run zone alarm firewall or xp's?

Re: Merged: Windows XP SP2 - discuss it here!
 

Zone Alarm gives you inbound and outbound monitoring so you might be better off running that :)

Re: Merged: Windows XP SP2 - discuss it here!
 

thanks M8 :)

I'll run with xp for now to see if there is any difference? apparently zone alarm does slow the machine down a little? or have a wrongly read a thread somewhere?

Thank you, havent had chance to go through that link properly yet but it looks like there might be hope of me getting my PDA working with Windows without having to format and revert back to sp1.

Installed SP2 this morning, download and install smooth as silk. XP firewall was already turned off in XP1 and to my surprise XP2 did not turn it back on by default. I have left the XP firewall turned off.

The Security Centre (English spelling) reports that my AV (Command from Authentium), and Firewall ( ZA Pro) are working correctly.
No problems ATM.

For the ubertechs amongst you, here is an application and mitigation compatability tool from M$ for XP2

i have just bit the bullet and so far it seems ok , the box boots up a damned sight faster and everything seems ok , time will tell i suppose :erm: :D :D :D

Re: Merged: Windows XP SP2 - discuss it here!
 

I get that as well, thought it was just me though.

I also have a problem with NERO since sp2, when I click on an audio file after dragging it into the burn window to edit it, the program just freezes. Still trying to fix it.
