Is anyone getting horrid screeching noises from WMP9 (SP2 build)? It seems to happen intermittently for me, and could well be to do with my WMP being minimized to the MSN dashboard. It's HORRID I tell you!

I've just downloaded and re-installed it to see if that fixes it.

You been downloading files from Kazaa again? :) The RIAA are releasing files which SCREACH when played (Otherwise known as dummy files) to stop people using Illegal file sharing networks.

Hi,

I'm a beta tester for Windows XP sp2, and today I got my Windows XP Sp2 RC1 cd, but it was broken, what can I do?? I don't know, cause it was free...

Maybe you can have a look HERE :)

Just to update you guys on SP2 status:

Apparently they're at 2103 internally and the builds are going into "RC2 release stage" whether that means there will be an official release candidate 2 remains to be seen but they might release it as "XP SP2 RC1 refresh" or something similar. Who knows. Just thought you'd like to know :)

has anyone gotten the Data Execution Prevention(DEP) enabled yet with SP2?

On both of my pcs the option to enable is grayed out and the reason stated at the bottom of the dialog box is as follows "Due to hardware design,your computers processor does not support DEP software".

Anyone else seeing the samething here or is it another feature not enabled yet like the feature to recognize the anti virus software?

Thank You in advance for your replies :p

Make sure you have a AMD64 cpu for that to work it will be greyed out if you don't have one.

You need a processor that supports it to enable it. :yes:

you got me wrong, the reason I use for large word, it is for attract some attention. that's all buddy.

Use colors instead/bold/itallic...

I can't imagine if everyone tries to catch some attention like you do maybe I have to scroll down 10 minutes before actually reach the end of the thread...

Good day
