rajncajn Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Just got an XP update for Service Pack 3. I wasn't aware that it was available & was wondering if there are any issues with it that I should know about before installing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa Majoris Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 Just got an XP update for Service Pack 3. I wasn't aware that it was available & was wondering if there are any issues with it that I should know about before installing it. We haven't installed it at work yet as there are, according to my desktop support folks, "a boatload of issues with it". Didn't ask what exactly, if they say it sucks, it sucks.

Didn't ask what exactly, if they say it sucks, it sucks. Good point. It's been popping up on my "update' thingee and every time I click it, it just goes away! About a month ago it started to do something and then I got an error message and it quit. Ironically, I just bought a new MSI WIND... Cool little puter, less than 3#'s w/ the power brick. Love it so far, but WIFI is giving me fits. FWW...it has SP3 installed! Maybe that's the root of my problems! Been spending a lot of time on the MSI forums.

Grits and Shins Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I tried to install it several times and each time it failed. Took a long time to fail and failed in the same place. Then took a long time to go through the recovery procedure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargerz Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I installed it and haven't had any problem with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicCEO Posted July 30, 2008 Share Posted July 30, 2008 I didn't install it either. I suspect this is the really terrible buggy Service Pack that they never fix that encourages people to upgrade to Vista. I'm pretty sure that's what they did to Windows 2000.
