      From: wa0goz@arrl.net              I'm running WinXP SP2 on a Dell Dimension 3 GHz machine with 2 Gig of RAM.              I have only heard bad things from people I know who tried to install       SP3 and on newsgroups. It seems that one of three things will happen.              1. Everything will go well and it will work OK. (Seldom)              2. It will seem to go well for some period of time and then something       happens and your computer gets screwed up.              3. It will not install correctly and your computer gets screwed up.              With the last two, a clean re-install of WinXP is required to get back       running.              With my luck with updates, one of the last two will occur.              What happens if I don't update and stay with SP2? Will I not get any       further updates at all?              Signed Scared              Henry              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
