Thread Name: Tech: XP Service Pack 2 - yes or no
Subject: RE: Tech: XP Service Pack 2 - yes or no
I finally installed sp2 a few weeks ago and had no problems UNTIL TODAY! I'm not sure the problem is sp2, but it seems likely.

I've been using MusicTime Deluxe for Windows 3.1 and 95 for a few years, and it worked OK on my new Dell with XP until after this Windows update. I haven't used MusicTime in a few months and just tried it today, and I'm pretty sure the only thing different is the Windows update.   The GVOX knowledge data base (sellers of MusicTime) in fact has an entry for my "general protection fault" whenver I try to enter lyrics or text, and says that the problem is running this old version on the newer operating system, and for $69 I can upgrade to a new version of MusicTime. The old version worked fine on the new XP operating system until Service Pack 2!

Running in compatibility mode for 95 doesn't help.

Harrummmph!
