I usually format my computer every now and then to keep it running smoothly. However the past few times I've noticed a HUGE performance-drop when upgrading from SP1 to SP2.
My CPU and XP copy is rather old, so I have to manually download SP2 via Windows Update everytime I format.
After a fresh XP and (up to date) overall driver install, my system runs like a charm.
As soon as SP2 is installd tho things get ugly.
Any ideas what can cause this? I defrag both before and after SP2 install, have good up to date virusprogs etc.
Perhaps I don't really NEED SP2, but I like to keep everything on my CPU up to date.
Any ideas?
Thanks
