It will probably go into beta when Windows 2000 SP4 is released, I suspect it's the same team (Microsoft Windows Sustained Engineering Team).

I don't really remember installing SP1. I do have SP1a, but that's only because I needed it to get the USB 2.0 on one system working.

didn't mess anything up for me, nor did it seem to fix anything either.


I Think there will alweays be a group of people that something screws somethying up for them and instead of getting to the actual root of the problem, them simply blame 1 individual thing.

if SP1 messed so many things up, why does it work fine for me on the 6 + systems it has been installed in ranging from a 133 laptop to an over clocked 2.4 @ 3.2 ghz machines ranging from a gaming rig to a MySQL database and web server
