..that is what the damn window says with the following incomplete and
useless "Access is denied" message.
Access to what? Where? Why? --- ZERO info. POS.
This happens almost exactly half the way thru the process as seen by
the progress bar.
What is more irritating that all of the work that had been done is
then UNDONE!
How in the #$&@#)^%!%^# can this be fixed?
From install (over 2 years ago) I never allowed XP to update. Since then
have not picked up any crud, or experienced any of the problems that
seem
rife with XP. (touch wood!).
Yep. I'll second that.
My laptop with SP2 has never been updated and it runs flawlessly.
My SP2 desktop had updates enabled and it became more unstable as time went
on. Eventually, it wouldn't run more than a couple of hours without some
serious type of error occuring. I reloaded its original XP-SP2, updates are
now OFF, and it runs perfectly. The only thing that I update is IE to kill
any security issues.
As Henry Higgins once said, "I shall never let an SP3 in my life!"
