Interesting facts and information about SP1

[Guest Clayton]

a.. There are roughly 2500 fixes in SP1. This is an average size for a

service pack, but the issues fixed are very important to our customers.

a.. Almost 20% of those fixes are direct result of customer requests.

a.. Over 500 of those fixes focused on security.

 

None of my 27 issues have been fixed, I wonder who their customers really

are??

Re: Interesting facts and information about SP1

 

SP1 for what? Certainly not XP Pro x64 since it released at service pack

level one in the first place (2005). Do you mean SP2 or are you referring

to another 64-bit Windows OS entirely?

Why would you expect a service pack to fix anything? That's NOT WHAT

SERVICE PACKS DO, DAMMIT! Sorry for shouting but any newbie *should*

know that SPs are rollups of previously issued patches, fixes, etc. If

your machine is properly updated almost everything in the service pack

will *already* be installed.

 

And any newbie *should* know that if you have 27 issues, you needed to

fix each and every one of them BEFORE installing the service pack.

 

So let's start by, first, removing the service pack and, second,

addressing each issue here.

 

Your first issue is: ????

Then what do rollups do? every update is a fix being either individual or

integrated into a services pack, there are many fixes in this SP that has

not been released on Windows Update

 

Please don't make me look silly, I have been around Windows since 3.1

You were NOT "only passing on the news", you were whining that SP1

didn't magically fix your problems.

 

Quoting you: "None of my 27 issues have been fixed"

 

If you want fixes for your problems, ask.

 

If you want to whine, go away and stop bothering folks here who are

trying to help those people who do ask for fixes, OK?

Re: Interesting facts and information about SP1

 

Colin:

I like your terminology "Progressing nicely", hopefully in the near

future I can borrow it. I was in remission from December, 2006 until

September, 2007. I was at the point where I was starting to get some energy

back but being back in chemo-therapy eliminates most energy and is harder on

the system the second time. Since I have my voice back I'm working 24 hours

a week and having chemo-therapy, I would rather be back working 40 hours

without chemo-therapy. Maybe next year but I won't set a goal because every

time I set a goal it goes the other direction. The last goal that I set was

being back to work full time October 1, 2007, instead I started chemo in

September, 2007. Currently my key terminology is "It' better than the

alternative". Have a great day.

Re: Interesting facts and information about SP1

 

Colin:

I never thought of me having a bulldog spirit, thank you for the

compliment. I try to base my state of mind on a comment from a comedian that

was famous before my time (I'm over 61 now), if it wasn't for laughter

everybody would be crying. Another basis for my state of mind is a statement

that I made to my grandmother for 20 years while she was still living,

"don't worry about what you can't do, be thankful for what you can do". My

dad got mad when I made the same statement to him. Now like it or not it

applies to me. I'm riding the same psychological roller coaster that

everybody does but I try to stay on the up side because the down side is

habit forming and I have enough bad habits. Have a great day.
