If your organization is using Responsive Network Service’s Scheduled Maintenance program, then your Windows XP machines are, in most cases, already reaping the benefits of Service Pack 2. In case you missed several of the more recent eNewsletters, XP Service Pack 2 provides a completely new security system addressing many of the issues which have been plaguing Microsoft’s flagship desktop operating system. While Microsoft intends to force the download at some point to all Windows XP users, controlling when the download and install occurs is the preferred method since Service Pack 2 alters how information is transferred to and from the machine. This means that after the service pack installation certain programs may not operate normally and work may be slowed or stopped. By using Responsive’s Scheduled Maintenance program, your systems will get the attention needed in a proactive manner. Don’t hesitate to discuss Scheduled Maintenance or XP Service Pack 2 with your Responsive consultant.
