Gezzz. From: David W. McSpadden [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, May 09, 2008 5:14 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: WinXpSP3 from Windows Updates Had a couple family members call last night about SP3 killing their machines. They use Windows Updates nightly and when they rebooted their machine it wouldn't come up. After many SafeMode boots I called TechSupport and they told me there is an issue with the WindowsUpdate version of SP3 and to have it blocked from being downloaded on any other machine until it is resolved. They seemed to know all about it because they stepped me through the correct SafeMode fix for it. Didn't know what anybody else knew. Good night. IT works, but keeping IT working is the hard part. Automation is great, until it breaks. ______________________________________________________ This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are property of Indiana Members Credit Union, are confidential, and are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom this e-mail is addressed.
