SP2

[James Silverton]

Hello, All!

It is interesting that quite often people give details of their
version of Windows XP and often mention having SP2. After all
this time, does anyone *not* run Windows XP without SP2?

I still run SP1 simply because I have NOT been able to successfully install
SP2. It's a dog!!

James;
Originally some had good reasons not to install SP-2 such as hardware or
software issues with SP-2.
However most of these have been resolved by the hardware and software
manufacturers.

Many other issues are prevented with a computer free of spyware, viruses and
other malware.
All problems, known and unknown, should be resolved before installing
anything especially something as major as a Service Pack.

With support ending for SP-1 it is essential for most of the rest to install
SP-2.
