Who else here has tried this, I did and my PC slow down badly and crashed when I restarted it, I lost everything. It was fortunate that I kept all me coursework backed up, or else I'd be really screwed. |

Applied it yesterday on my Toshiba Satellite 5105-S607 with only one problem - I had to download new GeForce4 drivers. I wish you had chosen the option to save the uninstall files, you could have restored your system...

SP1 supposidly has something built in, so if you are using a leaked serial number (you have a dodgy copy) it will make the OS corrupt....

Mine is original, i think, I got the PC from PC World, XP came with it, so OS should be an original, not a pirate.
I might try it again, when service pack 2 comes out. |

I can't even download SP1 for XP Pro as my 'product key is incorrect'! Afterall I did pay nothin for the CD, so I can't really complain!

You can change your product key and then install SP1 |

SP1 for Windows XP. If you have one of the leaked Corporate product keys then the SP will not install, your OS WON'T be corrupted either!!!
You can get a workaround on the net if you look hard enough and in the write places. There are other corporate product keys that do work with it too. |

For me Sp1 was great as my pc stopped hanging for few secs after some programs are closed.
