Polyfoon Posted August 24, 2004 Share Posted August 24, 2004 You could check the Microsoft website concerning SP2.There's a list of programs wich won't work properly with SP2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy Posted August 24, 2004 Author Share Posted August 24, 2004 if you would really read all the article, you would see that it says that it wont work if you use Windows Firewall, which i didn't used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilemke Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 @DutchyThis may seem like an odd question to start with... but...What antivirus are you using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy Posted August 25, 2004 Author Share Posted August 25, 2004 i'm not using any antivirusthe only things i got installed is my audio driver (Cmedia 97), my ATI CAT driver, .NET, SQL 2000 SERVER (the problem was there even before i had it), and some games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhoerd Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Good to know Anyways, antivirus like McAfee are fine. Regular updates. I'd recommend Norton Antivirus, but I think it's on the black list by microsoft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
argon007 Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 Good to know Anyways, antivirus like McAfee are fine. Regular updates.

mazin Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 but why do you think NAV is on the blacklist of Microsoft?I think he/she wanted to say that NAV is one of the apps that would lose functionality under SP2!What I want to say is SP2 must be blacklisted by users who have similar apps.

Why the difference, who knows, after all, this is microsoft *smile*. Dakota SunRunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bilemke Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Oops.. foregot about this thread..@Dutchy, ever figure it out?Also, reason I asked as far as AntiVirus as there is a bit of a install problem with Avast (I use) and sp2 that prevent InstallShield isntlallers in particulair from running. This is weather or not the windows installer is messed up or not (also common to sp2). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
