Re: [W2K] Win2k Service Pack 4

As with any overhaul though, it may be prudent to wait a bit and let the lab rats have their run with it first.

The build number is 5.0.2195.6717

Thanks for the heads-up Skip!

I think I will wait a few weeks, then slowly start rolling out on a few clients to test it, before complete rollout.

I like to test out new stuff. I have installed it 3 times so far. One clean install, one upgraded from SP3 on a Citrix Server and once on a RRAS server, no problems to report thus far. I am holding off for a little be before the domain controllers.

Just applied to a computer that had been giving me problems with new hardware installs (I was going to re-install the OS in the next few days to see if that would solve it), applied the service pack, re-tried the sound card driver installation and voila', we have sound!

Thanks for the link (I will let everyone know if any detrimental issues arise from the install).

Installed on 2 desktops (2k Pro) and 2 servers (non-DC, 2k Server) and no issues so far. Will not be able to test a DC install until the weekend (surprise!)

Spare laptop is testing now as well, remember the Cardbus hotfix post-SP3.

Looks like Q329170 will be part of SP4. That one causes shutdown problems for 3 of 4 workstations. I'll pass for now.

I'll install it on my VMWare vm tonite, and I'll report back if there are any issues/errors.

I wonder if SP4 has an updated version of Spoolsv.exe? Any version later then or equal to this information should fix the Q329170 problem.
Date Time Version Size File name
------------------------------------------------------
28-Jan-2003 13:34 5.0.2195.6659 45,840 Spoolsv.exe

»support.microsoft.com/default.as···s;814770

If anyone who has applied this SP could check this file. it would be appreciated.

I have just installed SP4 and spoolsv.exe is version number 5.0.2195.6659 (as above) but is shown as being created on May 2, 2003. What is different is the file size which is 45,328 bytes.

Re: [W2K] Win2k Service Pack 4

Thanks: That's odd the version number never changed, but I think it would be reasonable to assume the shutdown problem is addressed in the Service Pack.

I've likewise got version 5.0.2195.6659 after applying SP4 and also 45,328 bytes, but yet a different date: 19-Jun-2003. Did some testing and the shutdown problem did not occur.

Yep this update causes some systems to hang from my experience. Perhaps they fixed this issue with SP4? I'll wait and see.

@uu.net
I have a system that had 329170 profile issues and after SP4 the "issues" went away and logs are clean (going on 3 days with no errors or warnings) Try installing it just remember to archive first

Re: [W2K] Win2k Service Pack 4 "Bump"

Sorry for Off-Topic. Please excuse my ignorance, but I am unfamiliar with "Bump". I have seen it many times but for the life of me I cannot infer its meaning from the context in which it is used. Would anyone care to explain it to me? I am, however, able to figure out it is not such a good thing to do. Therefor, I promise never to do it. Thank you for your understanding and patience with this not-seldom-poster.

I just finished slipstreaming SP4 into a Win2000 CD. I'll be trying it out once I need a format.

I think the first thing I would want to see is a list of bugfixes and security holes fixed by SP4 that are not in SP3, and without having to do the elimination myself. hehe

So I suppose when MS releases that info, I'll look over it. I sure do hope it's nice and stable, though, because I'll have a new 2K Server installation coming soon that would benefit from just being able to get SP4...

Should SP4 delete all folders like "$NtUninstallQ815021$" from C:\WINNT?
I see all of them in place
