| 679790 | 2008-06-18 04:08:00 | The chap at Ascent tells me some people are having problems with SP3. I had none, but now I'm wondering. Anyone know of problems? |

| 679793 | 2008-06-18 04:17:00 | Only problem I have had is when the PC has SP3 and is Connecting to a Home Server as well on a LAN. - servers all upto date as well. I have a couple of PC's in the workshop (this one included that I'm on now) that has SP3 on and they are fine - NOT backing up to the server, others in the house that still have SP2 and connecting/backing upto the Home server - All fine. One of my PC's and several other customers that has SP3, & connect to the Home Server are experiencing intermittent lockups - the mouse moves but that's all, every thing else even ctrl/alt/del all locked solid. One customer has 8 PC's in the business - all running SP2 the 1 that did have SP3 on was locking up almost hourly, I removed sp3 - made it better locked up once a day, reinstalled the OS completely stopping at SP2 - been running fine since. |

| 679795 | 2008-06-18 04:44:00 | I'd put it on - first - then install other software. | wratterus (105) | ||

| 679797 | 2008-06-18 10:31:00 | When I installed SP3 I got the infamous blue screen and I had to reinstall but luckily I didn't lose any data, its just now Windows Explorer encounters problems sometimes. I don't have an AMD CPU or an HP computer so I guess I was unlucky and got an corrupt install :angry | MongooseRoadkill (13197) | ||
