Today my ham PC died. It had been sick for a while, SATA controller errors on the motherboard. It was limping along, but tonight when I tried to restart it, it couldn't find any boot devices. I'm having a replacement motherboard shipped from Hong Kong, I hope it arrives well before CQ WPX Phone.
But I have a real point..... I pressed an old XP box into temporary service. It was only up to Service Pack 2. I was able to reproduce the problem with the updater always asking to update, even though it's the current version. When Service Pack 3 and all subsequent Microsoft updates finish installing, I'll see if the problem is still there. If it is, then I can debug it. If installing all the Microsoft updates makes the problem go away, then the people who are having problems may not have all those updates installed. Time will tell.... 73 - Jim AD1C -- Jim Reisert AD1C, <[email protected]>, http://www.ad1c.us ______________________________________________________________ DX4WIN mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/dx4win Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
