It could be a dumb question...is it worth to install SP1 ? I've installed it once but it set my PC to go a little weird ( the vid card not working properly, and my pc tends to slog a bit etc etc ) but really worth to install it again ? Cause I can't have my USB 2.0 to work.Thanks
 
I'd go ahead and install it. Your problems sound pretty unique...SP1 has been out a while, and most people use it with no problem. When I first installed it, I had a few problems like you're having, but it seems they've disappeared.

Consider making a Windows XP CD with SP1 slipstreamed in. They have an easy-to-use tool at FlexBeta.net, or you can find tutorials on how to do it manually.
 
with all the security updates and usb2 support, really worth the while. no problems to report here.
 
you should just for security reasons ... after you do it maybe check your mobo makers site for usb 2.0 drivers?
 
Security...Sp1 supposedly patched obvious and well exploited holes, that have gone patchless otherwise.

I can't update driver unless I install SP1.I'd do it anyway...thanks
++Another question., I've got an XP Pro CD with SP1 ., could I just install and overwrite the existing one w/out losing my datas I mean, upgrade installation ??
 
It'd be easier to just use Windows Update, Punky, and a lot less time consuming. 🙂
 
I agree with Devynal... the update seems the easier route to go IMO

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. 🙁

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
