kamui Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 Just browse the current computer magazines, I am sure that in the next months many of them will contain a SP2 update CD. It is cheaper than ordering it at MS I think. In Phantip Plaza you can already buy Windows XP Prof with SP2 included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamokhamok Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 If you use Microsoft Update - automatic update --- then you'll be automatically given the opportunity of downloading the Service Pack 2. This actuallyhappened to me last night. The baeuty of this automatic downloading is that you don't have to wait until it downloads completely. When you log off and then log on again at some later time or date the download recommences from where it left off until such time as its all done. I think it said it was 70 something MB's so that will take sometime and somedays to finish. I'm in no hurry.. Thanks to whoever gave the web address for the free Service Pack 2 CD.- I have sent for that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
