News on front page : http://www.techspot.com/#newsitemEpklpAyAAuqQYGtWJN

Thanks for the link Phant..

oops!

No link to a download on the front page though so handy that you posted it

Have you installed this yet Phantasm?
I don't like the "To determine whether to install Windows 2000 SP3, Microsoft recommends that customers review the Windows 2000 SP3 documentation." statement. Sounds very ominous. Like something bad could result in the installation... I think I will hold off on this for a little while even though I have the installation file sitting on my desktop :suspiciou

I've already tried it as soon as I made a drive image. So far everything is exactly the same....

Languages

I've got a french Win2000 and i wanna tell all ppl who don't have english windows they don't even have to download the SP3 using the link above cause there's a language check and it fails if you don't have english. So don't download just for fun

Erm... Did anyone care???

I am not too sure. Service packs are culmulative (i.e. if you do a clean install, you don't have to install service pack 1, then 2, then finally 3, you just install 3. 3 is the fixes after 2 and 1 plus 2 and 1.)

Well so far i cannot tell any difference wat so ever:rolleyes: But then again, nothing was wrong before i installed it

Thank you for posting the fixes... Though I must admit I didn't read all of them...


As for if it's just fixes after SP2, no...

That list contains all fixes in the three SP's...
Why can I say this?
Because it lists support for ATA/100 fixed... This was originally a hotfix created after SP1, but before SP2... (It won't even install in sp2...)
And since it was fixed in SP2, it stands to reason the fix list contains every change incorporated into SP1, SP2, and SP3...

(I'd hazard a guess that the fixes in SP3 is listed as 30xxxx)

Now just to find out if I should download and install it...
