The cd includes the 260mb version of sp2 and some 200mb which seem to be mostly debugging tools not needed by the normal user. And of course a bit of documentation about sp2. The installation went flawlessly. No problems so far. A pleasant surprise is that avast shows up in the security centre. Took me a few moments to disable the monitoring of the firewall and disable warnings about automatic updates. -- Cheers, Andre "If fifty million people say a foolish thing, it is still a foolish thing." ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
