I see microsoft has opened up and is letting people download and try sp2 rc1 and just wondering if anyone has downloaded and tried it yet?

coolies

Between being on dialup and the fact that I just did a complete system wipe and reinstall like 3 weeks ago I'm hesitant to install anything.  I'd hate spending 2 days downloading then have it totally hose my system http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' />

So , to see a crap what gonna do to your windows after you install SP2 (into original winXP!! whats gonna be anywhere else i don't know, but i think will be worst) go here what will be after SP2 update! http://images.thetechguide.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':blink:\' />
