sp3 important msg..

No one has reported computer blue screen crash while running 4.0. The reported crashes are program crashes not computer. AMD processors have always given programers fits because they do not function the same way Intel chips do.
No one has reported lost files either.

How about a link to the HP article so we can read all of it?

Since IE7 came out long before SP3 then I would guess that would be why it is supposed to be loaded prior to SP3.
As far as power management there has always been this in XP and in previous versions. It sounds like they have updated the drivers for that. Not sure what HP's problem is with it unless they use a lot of AMD processors.
