What happened? Good/Bad/Indifferent?

Major fixes?

Enquiring minds want to know.

Nothing seems to have changed. Have had no crashes today. I don't know the list of fixes or anything. I know this is really disappointing...sorry,don't know much, but my system is running fine.

Just to let you know that there are reports filtering in to www.hardocp.com about SP2 hosing network configurations.

I just installed the SP2 and there seems to be no problem so far. I also tested my HD speed before and after SP2 upgrade with HDTach and after upgrade it works quite a bit faster. So I guess that the ATA100 fix really works .

I think the main thing of intrest here are three 1394 OHCI fixes. Mostly they seem to be aimed at non-camera devices with controllers not using TI chipsets.

After I backup, I'll try it and see if it fixes the problems that lead me to replace my NEC based Orange Micro card with a TI based Pyro. Later I'll try on my notebook and see if it fixes the problem where I need to remove all USB devices (unplug, not un-install) to be able to output DV back to the camcorder.

If sp2 helps either of these problems I'll post a follow up.
