anyone else have computer problems after the download?

my display settings continually change.
e.g 1 day its 800x600-1024x768

the next day it changes to 800x600-1680x1050

messenger no longer opens up the inbox.

and my display size on the monitor changes daily. (2 days)

what's up anyone know? used spysweeper and got nothing.

No idea. Uninstall it and see what gives.

another thing, is it worth keeping nortons if i use spysweeper?

Rather than download SP2 I clicked on the button on the update site asking MS to mail me the SP2 disk- it was free and came in 4 days by courier. I still haven't installed it though; I figure they'll be putting out SP2 updates and patches any time now, and THAT is when I'll install it.

I loaded SP2 on my Toshiba Tecra 8100 running XP and had no problems. I have heard of compatability issues, though, with other software.

I'd suggest first going to your computer makers website to see if there are any known issues.

To fix your specific issues you could try:
1) uninstall your video driver and then re-install (get from maker's website) to fix resolution issue.

2) uninstall and re-install messenger.

I know these aren't genious insights, but give them a try and see if they work. If not, then try a reinstall of SP2.

Also, forgot to add. Make sure your bios are updated before reinstalling SP2.
