|
 |
Yep, I got my hands on SP2 early, and to my surprise it works with my non-legit copy of windows, not only that, it seem to be 2x faster in everything, loading, opening files and what not, it took me 2 seconds to load into windows, good shit.
Windows XP SP2
Asus A7N8X Deluxe 2.0
Athlon XP2500 @ 2.4GHz (overclocked)
1GB Corsair XMS DDR400 (overclocked)
Radeon 9700 Pro (overclocked)
2x60GB Maxtor 7200/8MB
TDK CD/RW 52x32x52
TDK DVD Burner 8X/8X
10MBit Cable

Many people have already installed SP2. It is posted on the main Windows site.
Glad to hear its running well for you though.

It is written everywhere that non-legit keys work with SP2. Also, look in the other sp2 threads.

SkylineGTR,
Can you check the build number after installing by running "winver" in the run command??
Lot's of ppl got the build 2153 even after installing the SP2 (WinBeta)..
The correct build should be 2180..

Doesn't really matter. You can still get the one for multiple computers.

I've tried a couple different versions of the SP2 and none will install on my machine. I have the XP Corp SP2.2 from about a year ago.
Any ideas? It's not really a big deal, but I'd like to get it installed at some point.

It is 2180, haven't checked this thread in a while didnt think anyone cared.
Anyways, MS is going to release SP2 for single home PC tommorow AM, its been confirmed by MS so we'll see if its true.

I'd suggest Zone Alarm 5 ... its great, very powerful and it comes with a nice Anti Virus app, thats why I uninstalled my NSW 2004 PRO cause it hogs resources.

I can't. The SP was built into the release.
Or at least I think I can't. I've looked in all the obvious places to uninstall the SP (Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components). Is there somewhere to do that that I'm not checking?
