Windows XP SP 2... Anybody tried?

[isagreg]

I always install Microsoft service packs and updates, but I remember there was a problem with Windows 2000 SP 4 and MAX files. Later Microsoft posted an update and the problem got fixed. So now I'm kind of confused. Should I install this SP2?

Anybody tried WinXP SP2 with MAX? How is it?

Thanks.

not sure if This directly replies to your question

but i am now starting a new job at a place where

 

anything created in VIZ 2005 in the last 3 weeks will now

 

NOT OPEN

 

They are running MS XP with VIZ 2005 and the latest files wont load

 

i believe they have all of the latest MS hotfixes

was There a MS update "hotfix" a month ago or so ?

 

This seems to be a problem but i havent heard if anyone else has This same issue

XP SP2 causes problems with Autocad 2004. I would guess Max and Viz would also have probs because the issue is to do with how the firewall configures internt access. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=884130&product=windowsxpsp2

I'm holding off installing SP2 until I can guarantee there will be no problems. About 1 year probably, lol.
