.NET 3.0
-
Well, I spent the last two days downloading and installing: .NET 3.0 Windows SDK and all of the other recommend apps. Oh yea, I also installed the last Windows Media Player. The result, now I have a few bugs. 1. There is a svchost process that hangs up using 50% CPU. 2. Windows won't run login scripts 3. Sound devices are lost 4. The system will render windows sometimes in classic or XP style or XP style then refresh to classic I uninstalled everything and for the most everything is fine except Sound devices and login scripts. Any thoughts?
God Bless, Jason

Not sure if this will help or not, sysinternals processexplorer (sysinternals.com) allows for showing among other things the commandline of the process that's running... goes a long way toward figuring out rogue svchost processes that seem to suck resources. Good Luck!

I have no idea about your problem, but in the last days I'm seeing loads of weird things happening to computers (including mine). :-D Probably the first heat of summer is melting them down. :~

Well shoot! there's your mistake. Now you have advanced DRM. Only a reformat will work.

Seriously, I have had all of the above EXCEPT the media player for some time on XP Sp2. No problems whatsoever. WMP is evil.

Chuck Norris doesn't repair computers, he stares at them until they work properly. :-D

Actually, Chuck Norris does not write programs. He roundhouse kicks his computer until it satifies his demands.

It turns out that the svchost, sound devices and rendering are related to a MS Update recently released. I restarted the machine and then using an app. called ProcessExplorer.com, I found the wsus.exe was in the pot as a problem. So, then I at the command prompt typed 'tasklist /svc' and inspected the locked up process included every service that I was having issues with. So, it looks like the problems with the .NET 3.0 installation were actual caused by something else. Tomorrow after installing all patches and fixes, I will try the .NET 3.0 again.

None that are appropriate for a Microsoft-centric developer site. ;P

You're right. I noticed every comment that is anti-Microsoft or pro-Microsoft competitor gets low ratings. :-D

You mean a automatic windows update, or one of the udpates as a result of installing all that? BTW I recently installed Orcas Web developer express, and Windows SDK... just been dipping my toe in the world of WCF and Linq (finally!).. pretty exciting stuff!

Orcas web dev first. I had .NET 2.0 already. Then windows SDK. That's it.
