Sweet. Thankee.

[Guest Prosis]

And does it make things better or is it just another update?

[Crusader]

made things better.

 

faster file transfer (finally) and some stability issues apparently

[Guest Prosis]

Well it's back to XP this weekend then...(no more Vista for now)

 

Note: Yes I change OS' about once every month ha ha ha

[Audio of Being]

Another fine reason why I should go to Linux, or buy a Mac

[Shiri]

Should I upadte with this already or wait?

[Crusader]

i'd wait another month or two just to be safe. if you update right now and use internet explorer 7, you can't downgrade to 6.

[Guest Prosis]

Yeah just like Vista is worst than XP, IE7 is (far) worst than IE6...

 

Nevertheless, just go with Firefox ;)

Hate to jump to conclusions, but now none of my videos will play.

[Crusader]

what format are they?

I just got a macbook pro.

[LonelyWreckage]

what format are they?

All. VOB, mpeg and avi (xvid) mostly. Managed to sort it through System Restore like.

[Crusader]

you probably just needed to install the codecs again. weird

[LonelyWreckage]

Nah, tried that. Uninstalled K-Lite and got FFdshow instead - didn't change a thing.

 

Think maybe it screwed up my video card driver ? I never know which drivers I need though, so it'd have been a pain in the arse even if that was the case. Like, I know my video card but if you go on their site they've got a list of variations and none completely match mine...

 

Read somewhere (whilst looking to find out how the fuck I was going to fix it) that this SP3 isn't suitable for PCs running an AMD chipset/processor either - which mine is.
