(probably highspeed dsl or cable but for 500 comps). we also have old p3 gateways that suck total ass and take as hitload of time to turn on. yes well, we use Novell as well, but they allow us to attach memory keys.. with certain restrictions. plus UBC owns a major backbone here in Vancouver (we are the biggest university in BC) so the connection is superfast ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/150081-windows-xp-service-pack-2-technical-preview/page/5/#findComment-1861358 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Yes, that stinks. We'll have to uninstall again when the final comes out. :yes: :rolleyes: No it does not stink at all. Real world scenarios don't have the general public installing betas and upgrading them. This is better and proper procedure.

Mr. Black Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Is anyone going to talk about anything besides their connection speeds and if they are able to get the file?

kainashi Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Hi,is there a SP2RC1 for the spanish version of XP? (or can I use this release?) Thanks nope, only english and german versions out right now and your windows language would have to match the service packs to install, i think. i guess you'll just have to wait until it's final. ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/150081-windows-xp-service-pack-2-technical-preview/page/5/#findComment-1861929 Share on other sites More sharing options...
