grimreap Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 Anyone figure out a way to load stylexp with the new sp2 beta? Or is there some better way to use themes? Thanks Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/6/#findComment-1490174 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrastudent Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 The wireless support is much better now. The available networks screen looks cool and works great! The popup blocker is also working perfectly. This doesn't "feel" like a beta at all.

Gamenews6 Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I am a Beta Tester fro this software, I Have downloaded it and when i try to install it when it checks my Configuration it just closes and pops up with setup could not verify integrity of the file Update.inf. Make sure the Cryptographic service is running on this computer.

Batfink Posted December 19, 2003 Author Share Posted December 19, 2003 So were can you download the download manager at? Please Note: Windows XP SP2 does not nor will it ever contain a Microsoft IE Download manager. The Download management feature is currently only part of Windows Longhorn M5. It is not expected to feature in SP2. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/6/#findComment-1491139 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batfink Posted December 19, 2003 Author Share Posted December 19, 2003 Okay then. Where can I download the download manager in the screenshot on the last page? That is the Download manager at Betaplace & Windowsbeta that Microsoft use's to distribute BETA's to official testers. It can only be used at Betaplace by official Microsoft testers and only works with Files Microsoft choses to distribute with it.

You can flame me for my stupidness now... Which visual style is that? :) [edit] Damn, just downloaded xpsp2-express.exe and now it tells me I have to uninstall my current SP2 installation. But I can't, because I used my home-made XP CD with SP2 slipstreamed :( Is there any way to avoid this stuff and just install it?

Dane Posted December 19, 2003 Share Posted December 19, 2003 I have a question before i install it to test it, where it says "180 Day License Prerelease Version of Service Pack 2 for Microsoft Windows XP Professional or Home Edition " does that mean it stops working after 180 days? or did i miss read something somewhere? :huh: Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/75970-the-sp2-thread-reloaded/page/6/#findComment-1491577 Share on other sites More sharing options...
