vista just needs resources. ive got vista on a new laptop and it works just fine, but its got 4 gigs of ram a large hdd and duo core processor

 

[Darkstrand]

why would you install sp3?

 

[liar2]

I've been running it for almost 2 months now without a problem. I installed it on my laptop too since I got tired of vista. It actually runs noticeably faster than SP2.

I just installed it this afternoon. Works fine. CS3 Photoshop runs clean as usual.

Way to read you fucking retard.

Fucking fail.

Service Pack 3 is not like the previous two service packs.
It is mostly a collection of hot fixes.
There are no MAJOR OS changes.

i've got 5 domains with it spread out accross them, my boss consults for a company with about 4k people and they've rolled it out.


no problems thus far. i believe its mostly security updates - nothing major.

why would you install sp3?

To reduce the number of updates to install after a fresh (re)install of Windows.

I slipstreamed it into my install disc and have it on two separate machines running with no problems. I haven't installed it via Windows Update or any similar method though.

SP3 has been great 4 ME.
