Should and should not. Guess i am confused just like you.

Morgan · 01-03-2005, 06:45 PM

really depends on what you do with your system. i do a lot of video editing and it changed a lot of shit on mine so i reverted to previously working SP1.

so basically, try it... if you dont like it, revert back to SP1.

no, Microsoft is like a bad car service station, they repair something and fuck up something else at the same time.

That about sums it up.

I have it installed and haven't been nailed with anything since, and it didn't f' anything up. So for me, it was well worth it.

blazi · 01-03-2005, 06:53 PM

I installed the SP2 and have had no problems...

sumphatpimp · 01-03-2005, 07:01 PM

problems with XP?

go here

OzMan · 01-03-2005, 07:09 PM

do it and then download this and if it still fucks up just roll back

ztik · 01-03-2005, 07:12 PM

Don't do it if you havn't formated recently. Its best to format first before you install it. I got it running my 3 machines. Only 1 of them worked after the initial install. The other 2 had to be formated.

Thanks

You just reminded me of the time I took my truck in for an oil change...Can't get much simpler than that right? What could possibly go wrong??

Well unknown to me the dumb fuck drains the transmission fluid by mistake. Then drains the oil and refills it and sends me on my way with zero transmission fluid.

I brought it back in and the Manager starts bullshitting me saying, "it must have been an air bubble"

xclusive · 01-03-2005, 07:14 PM

just make sure you backup first

bdld · 01-03-2005, 07:37 PM

go for it, i havent had a single problem with it. system runs much better.

jukeboxfrank · 01-03-2005, 07:43 PM

Do it ....I love the sp2 made a big difference

TheSpaceBulldog · 01-03-2005, 08:05 PM

As long as it wasn't downloaded via the windows update tool...
You're much better off purchasing the sp2 disk...!!!

Spunky · 01-03-2005, 08:10 PM

I haven't had any problems...be sure to check the compatibility list before you try it

TurboTrucker · 01-03-2005, 08:12 PM

I didn't install it and I haven't had 1 problem.

01-03-2005, 08:13 PM

I finally gave in and installed it and haven't had any troubles.

boner 2.0 · 01-03-2005, 08:43 PM

I have installed since the first day it came out (non beta of course). Never had problems. They only annoying shit is that auto-update crap in right corner...

Mack · 01-03-2005, 09:57 PM

Depends on what you use your system for. It will clear up most pop up issues if you surf . No problems on any machine I have installed it on.

r3ap3r · 01-03-2005, 11:44 PM

Recently installed it. I haven't had any problems with SP2 yet.

doesn't matter, it has a little more security features, and theres tons of updates after you upgrade to sp2. Be sure to backup before doing it though.
