I've been lurking/learning for a couple days and finally upgraded my 2
PCs with the dreaded SP2. Thanks
to the advice of the MVP's and the other knowledgeable folks here, all
has gone flawlessly. With all the
grief folks are having with updates going screwy, for once I thought it
might be nice to say thanks for a
couple of good installs.

Glad to hear you had a good experience. Service packs are like Judgement Day
for users with systems that are misconfigured, poorly maintained or infected
with viruses and/or spyware. But for home users (at least) who have invested
the time to learn how to use their computers effectively, and who thoroughly
prepare for the upgrade, a successful transition to SP 2 is almost
inevitable.

That said, the upgrade experience also shows that the industry needs to do a
better job in instructing users in the proper operation of their systems.
Sure, it's the user's responsibility to learn how to use their computers,
but many are ill-equipped to understand what is expected of them.
 
Ted!
I did everything and prepared to the upgrade, but, I am still having very
weird problems and I tried to fix them different ways- it did not work...Any
fresh ideas will be more then welcome....
Every time when I am turning on my computer, when it loads up I can hear a
weird beeping sound coming out *FROM MY SPEAKERS* (- that's been checked
many times). If I will turn off my DSL modem- the sound will stop. After
turning it back on- sound continuously pissing me off... :-/ I really do not
know what to do. I did everything possible..Oh, yeah, there is a way to
re-install the whole thing- but it is my very last option that I am not
going use yet...Still, my whole computer slowed dawn, every time when I am
closing Win- I am getting Iexplorer.dll error- iexplorer.dll failed because
windows is shutting dawn- and yes, I did verified files..I checked pc for
viruses with all kinds of software.... And I am just hopeless...But still
hope just a little bit, that someone here can help....
Also, I only 'have got this problem after installing sp2, before that I DID
all necessary preparations!
Thanks for your time...
