270118 2004-09-07 05:57:00 I am starting to become convinced that there are unanswered issues with AMD and XP SP2 with most if not all their processors. I know not everyone has had negative experiences - but there are still enough from what i can read from the other topic presented. KevCole (774)
270119 2004-09-07 06:26:00 I run an older AMD 1800XP+ chip and have SP2 since the day it come out as RC2.

I am very happy.

270124 2004-09-07 10:58:00 Sorry . . maybe i was incorrect . . . i had read some of the other topics concerning SP2 experiences .

I am running XP SP2 on a gigabyte motherboard with a barton 2500XP+ Athlon . . . 512meg Ram . initially and too a certain extent now, had experienced slowdowns . . . A lot of it was improved when i removed Norton and stopped using my native firewall . However . . . I still get bogged down

I know that XP Sp2 is experiencing major difficulties with the high end AMD chips and i know of one other whose AMD powered machine is also suffering from hicups .

I am wondering whether SP2 is quite abit more resource hungry than Xp Sp1?
