You are correct that I should have said "XP Pro SP2". I did auto update as
indicated by the subject "after installing SP2", and "The SP2 installation
seemed to go allright". Now that that's done, IS there a further installation
process or not?
However now that I have received your impolite and condescending reply I'll
go on to Usenet where I expect such behavior.
Oh and at least I can "peroperly" use spellcheck!

Phbbt!
