Hey :)

 

 

 

I got a simple question :

 

 

 

For some programs i want to instal , i need service pack 3 ..

 

 

 

But what changes it when you installed it?

Service pack 3 will have a lot off updates, including updated DLLs, and I am guessing some of the programs you're on about require the updated versions.

Will i loose stuff on my computer when i install it (sorry if that's a stupid question :P )

Nope. You won't lose anything.

Just a clarification, is sp3 out yet, or just coming out soon?

It's been out for months.

SP3 is close to being "pushed", that is, instead of choosing to update to it, the update will roll out automatically unless you choose to reject it.

 

 

 

There are two major issues:

 

 

 

Some security products will interfere with the installation, so turn off anything which may block file updates or registry changes - this can include antivirus, antispyware, firewall and hips systems.

 

 

 

If an Intel processor image is used to load an AMD processor system, a conflicting driver will be re-activated by the service pack - not a new bug, as this happened with SP2 as well. Not even a bug really, just gross incompetence by some major system builders, as this is an unsupported procedure.

Well, there's an easy fix for that, I had that happen on my desktop computer, and clare gave me the fix :).

Here's the fix:
