Official Update has been out. I updated and went back, seemed slower and buggy? I have Windows XP Pro. Wondering if worth the update?
Can anyone add their opinions or review of this upgrade?
Thanks.

No noticeable differece

seems that the XP Corp 56k net connection is faster over the last week with SP1. otherwise no difference, so far

No major difference here too !

Maybe just some bugs and security hole ;)

i think everybody knows that there are no significant differences with sp1

the game is over, we will see us again hunting at sp2

have a nice day
kernel

has anyone else noticed more ram usage? seems to me that it takes a little more ram. lol

wrong topic, sorry

The only diff I notice is my machine always shuts down not. It used to hang a little to long before.

looks like Nero INCD is busted either by XP SP1 or Office SP2. InCd filing, ie saving & copying, within XP is ok, but not saving to an InCd disk via Word_SP2.
The Word error talks about file permissions, but i havn't changed anything. Trouble is i didn't test InCd file-saving via Word after Office_SP2 & before XP_SP1.
Also, not possible to format a blank CDRW via InCd tray icon so I guess its XP_SP1 to blame, ina manner of speaking, not Word_SP2.

i would recommend installing sp1 only as soon as windows xp is installed. otherwise, installing service packs in the middle of the stage, would cause errors. it happened when i used windows 2000 professional. i was using it for a while. and then sp2 came out. after i install it, the system became unstable. i think it is cos a large number of system files gets updated and the other software is not ready for it. once install sp2 soon after installing windows 2000, and then install all the other rest of the software, everything seemed be all right :)

No big diffs here either, cept a lil monkey biz on what's his names part.

Berlin2 or anyone else concerning bout nero probs / permissions etc and XP / SP1.

thats interesting, thx. After shutdown & switchon InCd did a format of a CDRW ok, but Word/SP2 will not write to the CDRW, so i will try the nero utility. Thank u

My Windows XP sp1 and Office sp2 have been running fine. No issues whatsoever. Maybe I'm one of the lucky ones. Just hope it continues...

Well I always reinstall when I install service backs. The final build that is anyways. No problems here. Good idea to update. Just might want to read that doc. going around that shows some common problems with sp1. I use to get a lot of them with previous builds, but now I don't get any. Guess they finally fixed it. Plus sp1 fixs a lot of bugs and holes.

Up to you of course though. You can always use system restore to roll back your system. ;)

Take Care,
Will

yes, i am heading for a HD format etc , cause of a new m/board in about a month. Word2002 was ok before SP2 anyway, its a work of art really, and a new InCD version will surface in a few months i guess
