Windows XP SP2 RC2 Now released!


Recommended Posts

hmm considering these forums can be used for quick help (esp. since this is something that someone has probably experienced before) I see nothing wrong with asking here first instead of waiting on someone from MS to email me. Being as I have been nothing but nice in asking for help I would ask that you lighten up and quit being such a jackass.

jackass? you suond more like a jackass than I am. You asked the wrong sources. There are times where you need to seek help from MS, they will be happy to help you. It might be their server problem and restrictions that prevent you from downloading at reasonable speed. It might also be your connection problems, but mostly it is MS's probelm. That's why you should seek solution from the direct source. Waiting and sitting dock and asking questions from people that don't have admin access to MS server will not get you much anywhere.

well anyways back on target here..... :rolleyes:

has anyone been able to determine yet if the DIVX problem has been repaired since 2142? I have been using VLC as of late to get around it but Im not much of a fan of that program and would like to go back to WMP or Divx Player.

You've made your point give it a rest already. Sheesh... you people need to lighten up! :blink:

The Divx bug was fixed in RC2.

Geez........can't anyone wait a couple of weeks for it to be released?

Who cares if RC2 is available, UNLESS you are a sys admin wanting to check it

on your systems BEFORE you deploy it system wide.

Why anyonw would want to download this, other than bragging rights is beyond

    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
    • I have been using Firefox for years.
    • I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.
