Ridgeburner Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 Hmm, i had SP1a installed, and just installed this release of SP2, and for some reason or another my ICF wont load. It says "Due to an unindentifed problem, Windows cannot display Windows Firewall Settings" I made sure the service was enabled in the admin section, anyone have any ideas? not running any A/V or 3rd party firewall software either.

naap51stang Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 If it were me, the public wouldn't have access to anything but the "gold" version of XP SP2 I've already read a few dozen posts on some uunet posts from people wanting help in fixing their computers because SP2 RC1 screwed up their computers. If you don't understand how to install, uninstall or repair your computer, you shouldn't be allowed to install it. More specifically, I've seen posts like this: "I just installed SP2 RC1 on my primary hard drive and it wacked out my computer.........help!"

Robbie Khan Reviews Posted March 21, 2004 Reviews Share Posted March 21, 2004 Well, all working fine for me, fast too. Some minor niggles though, firefox throws up a memory error when it tries to load anything from it's history or cache (not aproblem, ill prob go back to IE now heh) and windows update dont work (loads but cant acces updates) other than that and the fact tthat the firewall settings dont show its all cool collection of screenies http://www.fixit-4u.net/mrk/root/temp/sp2/ stable so far too, no probs using anything (overclocked 210MHz on cpu too so time will tell, SP1 wa sup for 2 weeks and 1 day before restarting for SP2 so lets see how stable it is :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/150081-windows-xp-service-pack-2-technical-preview/page/8/#findComment-1867164 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic2k Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 I know the risks of running beta software i was just wondering if SP2 RC2 will be accessible to the public the only issue i have with RC1 is that the security Center doesnt report my Virus Status Correctly (i'm running Norton Anti-Virus 2004) and the Security Center tells me to check Status and i do and everythings fine In fact im finding SP2 RC1 a lot more stable than SP1 seems they fixed the slow down bug Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/150081-windows-xp-service-pack-2-technical-preview/page/8/#findComment-1867181 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie Khan Reviews Posted March 21, 2004 Reviews Share Posted March 21, 2004 yup, i use AVG and i just chose the option that says "I have AV installed and will monitor it manually" fast too!

Jelly2003 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 Can anyone help me please..... I have been trying to download this for 2 days now. Every time I attempt to download I get a certian way through the download and it fails on me. So far I have tried downloading with : GetRight - Failed 53% (server just wont respond) GetRight - Failed 60% (same problem) Firebird - Failed 51% (Firebird reported it as "Download Complete" but it got half way) Getright - Failed 92% (6 minutes remaining) It seems to get to a certian level, and then thats it, it no longer downloads any more, no matter how many times I click "Resume". I've literally left it on for hours at a time and it does absolutley nothing. I'd be happy to blame it on busy servers, but honestly, why would it just get to a certian level and completely stop? Also why is it that I can start it downloading in another download window while my GetRight window is still open. If the server is busy why would it let me start another download, and it will send the new download window data, while it does nothing with the original download? So I'll ask again... are there any mirrors for SP2, or are there any site that are likely to mirror the file. Thanks. EDIT: Changing my IP address (then signing in) does not work. This is driving me mad, if anyone knows any mirrors I would appreciate SO SO SO SO SO SO much.

mcnelson Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 I dual boot, and now after installing SP2 the boot option lists it as 'Windows XP Media Center edition'. It's not, by the way. Strange.
