moby69 Posted June 9, 2002 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conan Posted June 9, 2002 Share 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.

mannyo Posted June 20, 2002 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
