*Sees XP* HMM. This sounds AWFULLY fishy now.

I just finished making a brand new old XP computer on the weekend; did all the patching. I never saw a Live installation update...

You're absolutely sure it was the official Microsoft site; correct? Because I'll check on my own comp, but you'd  think I would've seen the upgrade the other day if it was a real one...

And especially with this safe mode booting problem, and... You say it's slow? Hmm. However, I don't want to be harsh, but it is possible that slowness can be related to the hard drive being on it's last legs... Mostly from experience, given I've gone through at least two of them. =P(One which out and out crashed... Lost everything then. >_^ Luckily it was back in like '03, so I didn't lose that much. =P)

However, after that guy comes to check on the computer, unless he has some bright idea of what to do, I'd follow MTM's instructions. And maybe look into the possibility of a new AV program. =P

I am SO UPSET!

I had my computer worked on to fix the not being able to get into safe mode issue.
While he was working on it it blue screened, (after he edited bios
Then he had to take it into the shop
Now it is slower than it was when he started ( It wasn't slow before)

"Well your hard drive might be on the way out"

I am so ticked I could explode.

Warning.. do not be the one to set me off...

Oh yeah, Sam, could I borrow that???

Well again, I checked all the optional updates the other day, and didn't see anything about it... I'll check now.

/EDIT: Hmm... That's weird... Okay, maybe I won't check; I can't access the site. xD Which is weird though, because I was able to access it fine the other day on a SP2 comp...

I can confirm that live is an optional (usually, not always, sometimes its with regular updates) update that comes after you get SP3. Tongue

So then why didn't I see it the other day...? =/ I did like thousands of updates on that with both SP2 and SP3, and well, I didn't see it. Maybe it was one that popped up after all the other updates, that Microsoft Update just didn't wanna show. =P

On that comp, yeah(It's not a new comp for me, before you ask. Wouldn't help all that much anyway. =P)... I was pretty much going through and installing what I could that wouldn't hopelessly break the computer(Nvidia driver update, I'm looking at you). =P
