atman_msu Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 You don't. Or, you don't use Interent Explorer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellBender Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 Works fine for me. Same (Y) Found a few other bugs though. Sure wish I could report them. Oh well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samoa Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 I set it up it appeared to be a little slower than without the service pack. I will try using that sp-2 updated XP some more, but it appears slower, bogged down if you will.... :blink: I also noticed it didn't recognize that I already had KerioPF and Norton AV. But I was able to get it to move past that, and accept that I did have existing security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batfink Posted February 26, 2004 Author Share Posted February 26, 2004 It appears that IE is sucking more CPU in this build than in SP1 and SP2 beta1. My laptop's CPU fan has come on twice today doing the same things I used to do without it ever coming on. Hopefully this will be fixed by final :angry: Check running processes... Update.exe is sucking my CPU & Memory. Find the EVIL :devil: Program and report it to Microsoft!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ad345zAdZ0d9_ Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 anyone have any news if the AV checking mechanisms work with AVG pro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizkit Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 I can't wait until this works fully. I think its gonna be great! To bad I have the bug were it doesn't say the firewall is on. Off to report that bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mipra Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 It's an issue the MS is working on. I personally wouldnt be bugged with that security alert though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banzai Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 well just installed and i cant see it lasting long before i unistall, should i just run system restore or uninstall then restore? Just i want my icons back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrastudent Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 It turns out that the excessive CPU usage problems I was having were related to the Shockwave Add-On. When I had about 10 windows open, each with flash ads, my CPU usage was in the 80s. I still don't get why that would happen with the newer build and not the older one.

Banzai Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 god everything is so slow, i know its a beta and still in development stages and im not complaining.

antoxicion Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 i uninstalled... cant handle that Update.exe and IE crashing when Open New Window... and so many bugs... but i hope they all get fixed.... question... if they do get fixed... will they put it on the update thing for SP2 to download? or will we have to wait for another release/?

Hurmoth Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 :huh: Its in beta stages, thats why its not out yet. And 99% of people don't experience significant slowdown. Isn't that for real! I just downloaded the new build and find that my system runs faster (I mean, I know that it's in beta stage still and there's bugs, but it's still much better than that last build that crashed my system)!

mipra Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 2082 seems to be a much stabler build compared to 2055 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I noticed that too. Its a breath of fresh air after having to scroll through oogles of updates on SP1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidic-e- Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Could you use an uglier theme? Wow. :no: Yeah actually I could if I wanted to. I haven't had the time to add in the 2082 uxtheme hack yet so no themes and I hate the default XP ones. And since it is MY computer you really have no say in what I use. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidic-e- Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Yeah, I noticed that too. Its a breath of fresh air after having to scroll through oogles of updates on SP1. Yeah that is true. I also noticed that it did it for Office 2003 as well. When I clicked on Office it listed the updates under it that I have installed. Pretty nice cleans up the add/remove rather good as well.

HellBender Posted February 27, 2004 Share Posted February 27, 2004 Another bug I found, hopefully someone can reproduce it and Flish can file it. Put something really big in your recycle bin (something that'll make Empty Recycle Bin take at least a minute) and then Empty Recyle Bin. While its emptying, open some maximized program (like IE or Firebird) and then minimize it. The icons from the desktop will be gone until you either cancel the empty recycle bin command or until it finishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The icons from the desktop will be gone until you either cancel the empty recycle bin command or until it finishes. I don't think that is a bug.. Sounds to me more like the screen is slow to redraw b/c of all the file activity going on while emptying the recycle bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
