Provided I can find a working legit key by whenever I get my PSU that I need RMAing, I'll test in 3DMark and some other benchmarks. I estimate there'll be a maybe 100 point difference in 3DMark06.

Firstly get a life you insensitive twat, if you had of read his previous posts he said that he was testing it on his older celeron system, secondly hes only about 13 and quite frankly hes the only one whos bothered to try it so far, so cheers ben, at least it shows at least some improvement over SP2 no matter how large or small

Actually it shows nothing... Those times are too close to say there was any performance increase.

But it was definitely nice to see something as solid based at SuperPI.
That shows that they didn't fix any "Slow Fat" That xp has naturally...
Although they may have added a few things to give a little boost to this and that.

I know they recommend not to install this on your primary installation but if one did is it possible to uninstall a service pack?

Jess Stingray · Dec 12, 2007

Yes, as long as it isn't integrated. I uninstalled it from this system.

Jeeze Ben that was quick, cheers.

Jess Stingray · Dec 12, 2007

No problem

I noticed that it screws up Diskeeper 8 slightly.....By slightly I mean that when I try to defrag I get an error message. It gives me a choice to ignore and continue, which I do. It then defrags as normal!

How do i install it with out intergrating it?

Slower, I know, but more thorough
