moby69 Posted June 9, 2002 Posted June 9, 2002 Just Installed SP1, on the infamous Corp version. Followed the Directions to un-activate and then insert another valid key and all went fine. Then I had no problems downloading and installing the SP1 beta update.The whole proccess went without a hitch, a new directory was created in windows called"ServicePackFiles" containing a new i386 folder with 1044 updated files in it totaling 243 MB (254,929,825 bytes).This is obviousely a rather major update, but to be totaly honest its as if nothing much has happened. Ok ive got 1044 updated files but apart from a new item in Start--All Programs called "Set Program Access and Defaults" there is nothing else noticable.Internet Explorer is now version 6.0.2800.1050.xpsp1.****Messenger is now version 4.7.0031Windows XP is version 2002Im not regretting the upgrade but am wondering if it was really worth while. Perhaps a bit more time will tell.
Conan Posted June 9, 2002 Posted June 9, 2002 With me sometimes the buttons and smilies of forums come up as red x marks. When you hit refresh the buttons show up. Earlier using the default windows video drivers (for Gforce 4 Ti) it caused my PC to reboot. Works fine now that I switched to Leadtek drivers.
war59312 Posted June 10, 2002 Posted June 10, 2002 Well sp1 at the moment sucks. why u ask? well it killed system information..not a big deal...well it also killed the build in firewall..um..guess i'll be going back..later
Qba73 Posted June 11, 2002 Posted June 11, 2002 My Add Remove Programs doesnt work, give me a error....i even tried the go backk to original luna theme and still no go...any suggestions
mannyo Posted June 20, 2002 Posted June 20, 2002 Something I found, having already changed the product key using a keygen one to install sp1, I then thought I would try and change the key again. It does not work. so keygen keys dont work after installing sp1.
XPerties Posted June 20, 2002 Posted June 20, 2002 moby69 - thanks for your input and detail steps you have done.SP1 was installed on my system that ran retail (yes i bought it) and also installed on 2 pc's running dvilsown and corp. All seemed to go ok and havent experianced any promblems at this moment.-XPerties
