[Kunal]

Hi, i just installed winxp sp1a on me system. n now its gone well slow! anyone know y or had da same problem? i used the full install file. help! pls!

[Supernatural]

There have been reports of XP SP1 slowing down some user's systems. There is a patch to fix this, I just don't know which one. There are too many. Just download all the patches/updates from the Windows Update site until there 0 critical updates left. Also DL any of the 'Windows XP' updates you may need/want.

is it worth gettin SP1, i used to install it but it made no difference?

SP1 fixes ALOT of major bugs and vulnerabilites. It's a must for any XP user.

Run BootVis.

just go and get the rest of the Critical Updates. The fix patch should be in there.
Then go defrag and all that...do a boot sector defrag if your prog. has that option.
