but i have been receiving msgs frm microsoft thru auto update that sp2 needs to be installed .

now why is that ??
What you have there is still a build
Service Pack 2, v 2149.
When the full version for consumer releases by 16th Sep. you will only see Service pack 2.
Since it is downloading some of the updates it will show SP2. I think you will just need 75 MB more to download. I suggest just wait till the full comsumer release comes out
what about the sp2 in september issue ? should i install that or wait till the 16th of september?
Hey ! leech, is XP SP2 in the Sep. issue of digit full or it is justa build ???
if the cd says rc anywhere then its just a build ...
the final release of sp2 is build 2600
and the final is very much out ...
yes i have the xp2 loaded on my machine (and on 20 machines in our lab) i got the cd from microsoft. it is good and till now i have had only one problem this was that when we had enabled zone alarm to auto load at boot time there seemed that a type of deadlock occured and the pc would hang once we removed zone alarm from autoload the machines are working perfectly.
probably zonealarm 5.09.045
theres an issue with sp2
upgrade .. should be fine
CD from Microsoft! Do they give it by courrier??
yes just call there office (and be polite... goodmorning mam .....student....please........help.........thany you .......gratefull....)
well cthulhu they do send it to u by courier and free of cost . i just send my request today. wait i will search for that link and post again.
