We've got a 100+ hotfix pack of many of the Windows XP SP3 fixes up for download. These are fixes that you would have to call Microsoft and get through their support center. These probably won't be up for download for more than a few days, so grab them while their hot!

In order to access the download, you'll need to join our forums (it's free).

SyncToy v1.0 for Windows XP

Now there is an easier way. SyncToy is a free PowerToy for Microsoft Windows XP that provides is an easy to use, highly customizable program that helps users to do the heavy lifting involved with the copying, moving, and synchronization of different directories. Most common operations can be performed with just a few clicks of the mouse, and additional customization is available without added complexity. SyncToy can manage multiple sets of folders at the same time; it can combine files from two folders in one case, and mimic renames and deletes in another. Unlike other applications, SyncToy actually keeps track of renames to files and will make sure those changes get carried over to the synchronized folder.

Microsoft has posted a new KB article for another fix going into WindowsXP SP3. The article, titled "Windows Server 2003-based or Windows XP-based client computers may not receive any Group Policy objects from a new organization unit" has a downloadable hotfix only if you call Microsoft Support. We now have that fix available for download. Check out what the article says about the problem and the fix at the link below.

It depends. When do you want to do a full scan?

On the Dutch release I made a shortcut that people can use for a FULL scan of their system.

The option /F is for full scan. Has nothing to do with the installation.

If some of you are dl'n the sp3 hotfix pack ad just installing them all, i'd advise against that and instead manually go through each hotfix and compare the update files with whats already on your system, it'll take a while but you'll end up not screwing the os up.

I only installed 58 of the hotfixes. the rest were either older versions of some of the files or duplicates with various build numbers. Theres a bunch of MCE & SP1 fixes in the pack so if you have xp sp2 you won't need them.

    • What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
