XP SP2 - Page 2

Elspode · 10-10-2004, 06:31 PM

I use Outlook heavily and IE as well, and still...zero problems. My machine is the bastard child of a dishwasher and a clock radio, and the only component in it newer than three years old is my secondary (non-boot) HD.

Files being copied or downloaded into a folder no longer just "appear" -- file explorer has to be refreshed manually, it seems, following SP2. Annoying.

Reinstalled SP2 tonight...had to reboot again after the initial reboot, but so far so good.

After things initially went smoothly during the last go-round, I started having problems with Windows Update. So, I did a system restore and tried to download/reinstall SP2 again...and encountered more problems. I've tried this several times now, but I just can't seem to get SP2 to install properly.

If anyone in the Philadelphia area can assist me in person with this monstrosity, I would greatly appreciate it...please PM me. I can't pay you a lot for your services, but I'll give what I can...and I'll bring it to your location.

Email the guy whose name I gave you for the cheap computer. He fixes them too.
