,but let me warn you ,it eats up 6 gigs so if you don't have much room stay away from it.
DON'T DO IT. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it SAYS GO BACK AFTER INSTALL AND SEE IF THE NEW PACK NEEDS SOME REINSTALLING OF OTHER JUNK ,THAT'S WHERE IT GOT ME.
There is no way that sp3 ate 6gigs of anything. its big, but no where near that. the standalone installer is only 540MB.
You had something else going on with your machine. THat is the only explanation. Even in the worse case installs in our IT shop, there have been nothing like you have described here. The machines we do have troubles with had other problems, such as major spyware or virii which left the system unstable to begin with.
And we have never had to reinstall anything on an otherwise healthy system, and I promise that most of my IT staff are running all the warez, porn, and assorted apps that everyone else is. Again, I say, that the only machines we have see issue with have system instability from some other cause.
Please don't think that I don't believe you, but if this is the case, then you have far surpassed the worst case see or heard of.
