Aaron Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 sheesh, Bink needs to seperate parts of his page into sections. Lousy navigation, or should I say.. no navigation at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vasilis Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 i am a bit confused...till now i thought that we have winxp "professional" and "home" edition.the "corporate" edition i keep reading in various sites is something different? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sedative Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 the corporate version is xp professional. the only difference is that they use VLK (Volume License Key) which means the same key can be used on many computers without activation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moby69 Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 Just installed SP1 Beta, what a massive file update that was, The SP1 download was just over 41000KB and updated 1044 files, creating a new windows/ServicePackFiles folder of 243 MB (254,929,825 bytes).Dont yet know if its made any major changes, all ive noticed so far is that messenger didnt appear twice in my taskbar after reeboot.Ill keep you informed.

ThA_FiLeR Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 So if I get this, this would be a major XP update with allot of bug fixes... I'll wait for the full version to be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qba73 Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 Question, doesnt M$ have a database with all its corp keys it issues? in theory wouldnt a generated one not match there database and thus lockout updates...it is already said you won't be frozen on the copy you have installed, you jus wont be able to get updates..and really if your XP works fine why do you even need the updates..besides its true if you can write it you can crack it..so its jus a matter of time b4 you have a workaround...M$ against the Tech community of the world and its resolve?..my money is on the wOrLd..

Rick Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 I have lots of probs with XP and my computer. I am guessing that it's my mobo and vid card combo but who knows. XP has never ran beautifully on my computer...I get a blue screen daily and frankly, I have just learned to accept it like we all did with Win98. Anyway, maybe this SP1 will be a glimmer of hope to resolve my computers issue with XP.Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 Rick, you ever ran Memtest86 on your PC? Since you're having so much bad luck with all the OSs, you probably have a faulty RAM module, usually bad RAM modules cause all problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted June 9, 2002 Share Posted June 9, 2002 Hmmmm, when is SP1 coming out or not an exact date yet?And yes, RAM does corrupt some OS's, if not its the HD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FthrJACK Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 ricks had that trouble since he built his pc, are you still running it with no Thermal compound on the cpu? im sure you had slapped too much on when you first did it, as the pc wouldnt boot when u applied it, you could have damaged your cpu it does sound like ram though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
war59312 Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 Well sp1 really messed up here. Darn system info and the build in firewall are dead. I mean completey dead. And I know it was sp1 cause I did a backup and checked everything before and it worked right before I installed sp1. Guess I'll be going back to normal. Funny though microsoft was suppose to block the FCKGW Corp. key. I used it and it installed perfectly. And um I've reinstalled sp1 5 times now with different keys each time and the same thing happens each time and when I delete sp1 my system info and firewall work so I know its sp1. oh wellcya, Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted June 10, 2002 Share Posted June 10, 2002 I hope the real SP1 isn't like that I hope they sort out the bugs and soon!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
