Hi,
The beta version has been around for a few months now, I've not heard of any adverse comments about it, so hopefully the shrink-wrapped version should be fine
Me think you must read more
Read on many forums beta users with problems from small glitches to BSOD ... and with the beta CR2 ... !
Hi all -
I installed SP3 a week or so ago - my system does seem to run faster.
Since then, a few problems - FSDiscover won't install - Traffic Toolbox won't install - may be a time to reinstall FSX.
Any one else have problems with anything after SP3?
Yep, I've lost my time zones for the world except for 12 regions, no world map, no sliding bar, nothing
I also lost the ability to have an adddress bar in the task bar.
Also, the new Beta Internet Explore 8 doesn't work - that may not be SP3, tho.
Is SP3 only for duo core systems? My sister (single core system) couldn't install it.
Ive tried four times to install SP3 on a single core AMD and got a quick flash of the blue screen and nothing. Went back to SP2 fine no blue screen flashes.
I rang Microsoft Australia and they told me to remove SP3 for the moment because there was no support for it for now as it is a beta version, so I uninstalled it back to SP2 without any problems except that I still don't have my regions, apparently I'm in Central Pacific time ( Mexico ).
What a joke.
I even did a system restore, still no luck.
I installed it and had all sorts of problems with my WPA2 network. It was probably me, but I uninstalled it and will try again when the final version comes. Maybe I should have re-installed KB893357?
I installed SP3 about 2 weeks ago..All seemed well until I went to logon to the internet. The installation had completely messed with my internet connection and ISP account. I tried all sorts of tricks to no avail and eventually had to do a system restore.. I MIGHT try again in a couple of months after MS have sorted probs., but till then will make do with SP2... Just be carefull guys and make sure you have system restore turned on!!
Cheers.
