windows xp sp2 rc2 works as advertised

Posted: 06-20-2004, 08:24 AM
group ,

my first attempt at win xp sp2 rc2 was less than a stellar installation

.... and the low disk space warnings made me think that the sp2 rc2

problems were related to low disk space ...

so i tried again ... but i moved several space hogs to cd-r first and

freed up some disk space ...

this time install worked flawlessly and all the problems from the first

install were gone. as i type this message, i am listening to the eric
clapton

cd that my daughter sent me for father's day ... but i digress

i have not had a reason to fix a bug ... there have been no bugs

that i have uncovered ...

now my question ...

when the final version of service pack 2 is issued by microsoft later this
year

do i uninstall sp2 rc2 or what ...

thanks in advance for your answers ...

what a service pack ...

YES -- you NEVER install over a Beta of anything.
