jhoffa Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I must say that they've worked magic on IE. For me, it's many times faster than on SP1. Firefox is now getting some real competition. Good job, Redmond fellas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MicroZombies Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I hope that I didn't confuse anyone. If you still look it up - it will say 5.1.2600 (As in Still Windows XP) - but do me a Favor & open Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer or Outlook Express & check out the Program Version Numbers using the "About" menu item. Ah there she is: "6.0.2900.2180_XPSP_SP2_RTM" - and guess what I used to have a lot of Problems with Windows Explorer Crashing on me all the time - So Far it has only Crashed on me Once - But hey I an still Breaking the OS in!!! I like how MS Fixed up Internet Explorer & Outlook too! I think that I will continue to use IE - But I am going to Switch E-mail Clients!!!! :woot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemo Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 does anyone know if when you upgrade to SP2, it automatically forces you to go to WindowsUpdate 5? and for thsoe that it does.... if you have a illegal cd=key... does it let you use it? (i'm thinking no?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f00kie Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 does anyone know if when you upgrade to SP2, it automatically forces you to go to WindowsUpdate 5?and for thsoe that it does.... if you have a illegal cd=key... does it let you use it? (i'm thinking no?) Yup. I updated to WU5 before SP2 and it didn't let me use the key, but once I updated SP2 (and it reinstalled WU5 anyway), it let me use it.

WayuU Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Is it available in french? I just went to MS website and even in english, it says that it's still not available for download so I was wondering if it has been released yet in french. From MS: " Those using the English version of Windows will start receiving updates in the next few days, Microsoft said." So, no other languages atm.
