Hi ATNO,

I got a 'sorry, but the page you requested could not be found' which gave me M$ site.

Here is a link that came through a list I am on.

No, but I had been having a problem with Adobe Acrobat and Reader where every time I would open either proggy it would tell me that I had to reboot to complete the installation. It was stuck in some kind of stupid loop and couldn't do any current updates. SP3 Fixed that. Yeah! I've installed it on about half dozen computers with no issues.

My best bud however, installed it and it crashed his computer. He currently can't boot to Windows. I should note that all my installs have been XP Pro. I won't have the opportunity to do it with XP Home until next week.

I've only installed it on XP Pro too, two of which are brand new computers. Dell 755 (mini format) and a Dell 830 (laptop). Haven't run into any problems yet besides DST, theres a patch for SP2/SP3 on the MS website but when you try to run the patch it tells you that its already done.
