Microsoft's Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 Rolls Out Trouble | |
|
||
| Time: 00:58 EST/05:58 GMT | News Source: eWeek | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

As with other service packs, caveat emptor. Windows 2000 SP3 installed without error messages for us on Microsoft Web server, Domain Name System, domain controller and IBM database server boxes running Windows 2000 Server, and we've been running those systems on SP3 for a week with no application breakage. Others haven't had that experience. SP3 early adopters posting their difficulties on Microsoft's support newsgroups report crashes, blue screens on boot and other troubles on machines. Machines with Logitech Inc. mouse drivers, Symantec Corp.'s Norton Personal Firewall and Promise Technology Inc. Ultra100 IDE controllers all had compatibility problems with SP3 for at least some posters. Our memory of Windows NT Service Pack 6, which broke IBM's Lotus division's Notes servers, is still a recent one, too. | ||

I didn't have any problems, but there is an issue with PCMCIA cards in Docking Stations that most certainly cause me grief at work.

Mooz,
You have link for the Pre-SP4 fix page ? Thanks :) TL |

For the pre-SP4 fixes, search for "kbWin2000preSP4Fix" (without the quotes) at the http://support.microsoft.com . Note that this only returns 25 results by default, so either choose "Advance Search" and tell it to return 150 results, or just edit the URL in the url box of your browser from "maxResults=25" to "maxResults=200" or whatever. There are currently 144 such articles.
