SP2 install order question
Anyone had problems with SP2 when installed with a new system rebuild? I had big problems when I installed SP2 on an existing XP build. So I reinstalled OS and before anything else, applied all updates to include SP2. Have everything but games reinstalled and have had no problems .
Is SP2 harmless (or less harmful) when installed fresh?
