Has anyone installed the service pack 3 for Win 2k yet? If so is everthing still up and running? :) I' m always just a bit on the cautious side with Microsoft Technology. :)

Hi Vince!

I figured I will give it 2 weeks or so and see what " shakes out" in the pundit newsletters etc.

I will probably also make sure my Ghost Images are up to date before doing SP3!

Keep me posted if you take the plunge anytime soon!

Rian :)

I unloaded mine too, it killed local IIS completely.
Removed it, all is sweet again :)

Hi Vince, A couple of us at work have installed it with no problems. However if you pop over to windrivers there' s a pretty long thread going in the W2k forum about sp3 problems the bulk of which are being caused by promise ATA cards.

If your running an ATA card I suggest you take a look at the thread.

I have not put the SP on any of my servers yet, I' m going to wait a week or two and see what shakes out and gather some more info in the mean time.

Took the plunge and put SP3 on my main workstation over the weekend after I got a good Ghost image just in case! :)

The jury is still out..... SP3 installed quickly with no problems..... After the installation it rebooted and all seemed fine.......Last night while browsing a site in IE 6, the whole shebang locked hard on me! :)

Reboots hanged during various stages and it took 3 reboots to get back in. Then I decided to run CHKDSK /F and it hanged twice in CHKDSK !

I am gong to give it another week or so on my workstation to see what shakes out. Defenitely holding off on my domain controller and other workstation for now......

I have installed Service Pack 3 for Win 2 with no problems on three machines! Not even a hiccup.....but I can appreciate your caution with Microsoft.
