Does anyone forsee any problems that may arise after installing SP2??

I have installed it on my Laptop and it is running without any glitches. I have installed it on 2 other computers, and the computers would not boot back up once I had done this. I then had to reformat the systems to get them back up and running.

I think the problem was something with the systems using a SIS Chipset, or a Via chip for the USB 2.0. I tried on these 2 systems multiple times and never was able to get them to run with SP2, so I put them back to SP1.

I know Microsoft has a list of alot of programs that won't run with SP2. I am not having any problems though with any programs on my system.

Upgrade to Karaoke Home Producer 4.103 to fix this problem at www.mtu.com. The upgrade is $15.

Or....you could plug you ethernet usb in if it's unplugged.

"I installed XP SP2 yesterday and know I get Error #1 when I try to launch KP. Any thoughts?"

This is exactly why I don't do updates simply for the sake of doing updates. If a new piece of software requires it or it's necessary to fix a problem that's one thing but it's a risky game to update just because one exists.

When it comes to computers truer words were never spoken: "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!"

I do every update when they come out, and have never had a single problem with my system.

There is always soemthing else in conjunction with an update, when it causes a problem.
