[mipra]

Anybody can tell me where MS put their downloaded SP2 Express? I am downloading the files through express installation..and I'm wondering where they put ALL the files it is downloading. Thanks

[AcdShdw]

ok i aquired the new uxtheme patch, how do i apply it?

[CloudEngineer]

is it required that we remove the older build first?

[CoLdFuSi0n]

boot up into safemode, go into X:\windows\system32\ and delete the uxtheme.dll in ghe dllcache folder and then rename the current uxtheme.dll in the system32 folder and copy over your newone and reboot :)

Installed SP2, system ran much slower and was more bloaded then before so I uninstalled it. But I did like the new icons in the system tray.

[ThisSiteHasLostItsCharm]

ffs wouldn't install, says it can't be installed over current beta, never had this problem with the sp1 betas....

[Shekers]

don't konw if anybody has the same problem as i do, but it seems to me that HyperThreading is not working on my system. When I boot it clearly stas it's 3.2ghz...but when I boot into windows it says 1.6 And when I looked at the SiSoftware Sandra CPU info it only shows 1 CPU instead of two. Anyone know if it's my system of if it's windows?

Perhaps a quick bios update is in order. I updated mine and HT is supported.

ARGGGGGGG,

I dont think thats a bug. Go to folder options, select the file types tab. Now select the type of file that it happens on, click on advanced and check confirm open after download. That should fix it :)
