SP2 concerns

  • Thread starter Thread starter Marlya
  • Start date Start date
I don't use Symantec products except for Go-Back on the 98SE side of my
dual-boot XP PRO. (NTFS) and 98SE (Fat32) and actually Go-Back was owned by
Roxio until Symantec decided to buy it from Roxio. Actually, I have already
installed XP PRO. SP2, Jupiter but I like to have the cd as a back-up and
also with me when I helping other users updating their computers.

: Symantec products may cause some issues but SP-2 installation issues is not
: one of them.
: Just like other programs, it is usually best to disable all of Symantec
: products before installing SP-2
