Is it a good idea to upgrade to SP1 or 2? I usually do keepup to date on all the newest versions of stuff, unless it is determined that it sucks.

SP-2 fixes about 3 pages worth of bugs over and above SP-1, which in turn fixed about that many in the normal Win2K installation. Many of these are useful to video, particularly if you're doing DV or want to use NTFS.
ATA-100 support
The ability to convert FAT32 drives over 20g to NTFS (a bug limited this to 20g previously)
Bug fixes for both OHCI and IEEE-1394 (device connectivity, stability, R/W errors to IEEE-1394 HD's etc.)
Leaks in the Registry (YIKES!!)
Various and sundry memory leaks
Stability issues
etc. etc. etc.
Do it.
