Vista SP2 is Here!

Looks like Vista SP2 is available today. Doesn't look like there's a whole lot of important changes. One thing to note, however, is that it requires SP1 to be installed

FWIW the RC has been rock solid - at least for Vista.......

On Vista x32 it ROCKS...
I just love it.

I'll probably just wait until the auto-update. I'm in no hurry. Everything works right now.

ah i was really hoping sp2 would include sp1 just like previous xp spacks. but oh well

Have installed both 32 bit and 64 bit versions on 5 PC's with no issues whatsoever...easy instal and huge improvement IMHO

 

[abe]

what are the improvements you guys are seeing after the install?

 

[tasaholic]

So far..and I'm still playing.... SP2 seems to have sped the system up...not quite so sluggish on the 32 bit version. Load times on 64 bit appear to be faster,but not much difference apart from that as yet. Guess we'll know the full benefits within the next few days.

Exactly...lol


And whats the point? We have XP with SP3 and Win 7, just let Vista die like it needs to.

Well, depending on what goes wrong, it might be awhile before you post again?

LOL well Here I'm posting again, system is working but I'm having a problem.

I'm not been able to log into my other computer (Windows XP SP2) over the network to access shared folders (Nothing have been done to that computer).

I'm using the same information (User/Password) that I always used but now I'm getting an error (Logon Unsuccessful) And the user name is automatically changing to "my computer name"\administrator.

 

[eggy53]

Well I just uninstalled Windows Vista SP2 but the problem persist. But its weird, never had any problem like this in my network.
