WoRdUp48 Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Hey, I'd just like to start this topic and to see what kinda 'kinks' people have run into when installing the final version of SP2. Also, if you have any alternatives to use before a workaround is found, please post that information here too...I am installing SP2 as we speak, so I will report any problems that I run into...Thanks everyone, please contribute if you can!-WoRdUp48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 The same incompatibilities as were known to exist from RC2 - some get fixed, the others will not, coz the responsibility is on the makers of the app to fix badly coded apps which end up being incompatible with SP2.

MCT Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 i too think this would be a good idea maybe if we get a good list an admin could make a sticky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoRdUp48 Posted August 7, 2004 Author Share Posted August 7, 2004 Well, I just finished installing SP2 final, and so far the small amount of programs have installed fine. However, I have not tried Nero yet, so I don't actually know if it burns CDs ok, I assume it would though. I have installed the following:AIM 5.5.3595MS Office 2003 SP1 slipstreamedMozilla Firefox 0.9.3Nero 6.3.1.17Quicktime 6.5.1Spybot - Search and Destroy 1.3Symantec Antivirus Corporate 9.0Winamp 5.04 fullWinRAR 3.30 CorporateIf anybody has any more information on software in SP2 RTM, please post specifics here!Thanks!!-WoRdUp48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamehead200 Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 Nero 6.0.0.0 has some compatability issues after installing SP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godan Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 nero 6.0.0.0 always had issues, download a newer build 6.3+ is fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolookingca Posted August 7, 2004 Share Posted August 7, 2004 I've got a system that works like this:Install Nero 6.0Install Nero 6.3 UpdateQuestion is: will this work properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try to just install the update. I think Nero's "updates" can actually be installed by themselves. Let us know how you go! -WoRdUp48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newdles Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 Why wouldn't it? Saying that won't work is the same as saying installing Windows Xp then installing Windows Xp Sp1 then Windows Xp Sp2 won't work. Update will update the already installed program. You should be fine.

nolookingca Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 yes but you said 6.0 wont work. If I install that before update, will the update still work.P.S. no time to try but the update is kinda tiny... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prathapml Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 I've got a system that works like this:Install Nero 6.0Install Nero 6.3 UpdateThe sequence you mention may or may not work. A far better option would be to go here, download the full pack and do the rest of your standard process: latest neroThat would save time and space on your CD as well!

Cee-Kay Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 I don't know if this helps, but I always install Nero from the latest update without installing v6 and then applying the update seperately, and it works fine for me.I haven't tried it on SP2 RTM, since I don't have a copy as of yet but I don't experience any problems on the copy of SP2 RC2 im currently running Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolookingca Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 see, the problem with this stuff is that the burner is on a no-connectivity system so I either have to 1) move the ADSL modem 2) download files , unplug modem and link computer or 3) use 128MB USB drive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godan Posted August 8, 2004 Share Posted August 8, 2004 while we are on the topic of nero you can make the unattened install of nero even more silent by opening it with winRAR and changing the comments from:;The comment below contains SFX script commandsSetup=setup.exe /SFXTempModeSilent=2Overwrite=1Title=Nero 6.0- 6.3.1.17 Ahead Software AGto:;The comment below contains SFX script commandsSetup=setup.exe /SFXTempModeSilent=1Overwrite=1Title=Nero 6.0- 6.3.1.17 Ahead Software AG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
