Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Hadn't noticed it was out . Think I'll hang fire till there are more votes for "no problems" than "problems" . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiraz Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Downloaded it during the week , wish i hadn't as now pc is really slow to boot up. also had to redown load media player 11 again as it couldn't find any music files. Going to have to spend some time sorting it out, but on leave for a week looking after the kids before they go back to school so have to wait.

Guest Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I downloaded it on Monday morning. It completely killed my computer which was unable to boot up at all. In the end I managed to start it by Restoring to an earlier point. I contacted Microsoft and was given a personal service advising me to download the Service Pack blocker tool from the Microsoft website. The nice man at MS said 'why would you want it anyway? It doesn't contain anything important.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I'm glad I bumped this . Sorry to hear about your experience, Ginette . I'll be avoiding it, methinks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Well, since the MS man told me there was nothing worth having anyway, you won't be losing out! This is a quotation: ACTION PLAN: - Please take our suggestion. Sems like that Service Pack 1 is not stable on your system. - We would like you to keep away from Service pack 1 as it has no new utilities but "Recent Items". Would you like to go for it just for "Recent Items"? Not a good idea. - Please use the link given below. Download it and run it on your system and Service Pack 1 wil not come again. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=D7C9A07A-5267-4BD6-87D0-E2A72099EDB7&displaylang=en - This will make your system stable and keep it safe from Service Pack 1.
