Re: Installing Windows XP Service Pac #2 - YES or NO

Thanks for the comments. It looks to me like it is safe to install SP2, so that is what I will do right now.

Re: Installing Windows XP Service Pac #2 - YES or NO

I'm back!

Did the install of SP2 and some other SP1 updates. I then reinstalled Hoster 2.219 and it looks like all went well. I see no problems at this time.

I made sure I made a restore point before the install of 2.219, so that if I have any problem, I can always restore back to 2.215.

Re: Installing Windows XP Service Pac #2 - YES or NO

I did an install of XP SP2 on my HP Pavilion ZV5000 computer over the weekend and in a mad panic installed it before a show today.

Although Hoster loaded, other programs like anything that played mp3, wav, wma, mpeg or even a DVD wouldn't work. Once I uninstalled SP2, everything went back to normal.

I am still waiting on an email from HP.

On my main home system however, installed SP2 with few problems and Hoster works fine.

Re: Installing Windows XP Service Pac #2 - YES or NO

My Hoster laptop worked fine after my SP2 install and re-install of the latest update. However, I have no other programs on my computer, so I don't know if those would have been effected or not.

Thanks for the tip. I just installed it. How does one find out when something new is available like Directx 9. I had no idea until you posted the information.

gduns

Have you had any sort of a problem since installing Directx 9.0? I have been getting pop ups telling me that Windows has a problem with this or that program, and needs to shut it down. Never got these before I installed Directx 9.0.

I have not used Hoster since the install so I hope I have no problem with it when I use it tomorrow.
