    Should I update to SP2?

    New HPZ400, new install of everything Avid. Question is, the machine came with Vista Business 64 SP1 on it, should I upgrade to SP2 for any reason or leave well enough alone?

    HP XW6400, 2x 3.0 dual Xeon 4g ram, Quadro FX 3500, XP Pro SP2 Pyro 64, MOJO, MOJO DX, latest nvidia drivers from Avid install disk, recommended QT version... [view my complete system specs]

    Never update your OS, QT OR nVidea drivers without checking the read me notes for what Avid
    writes on this.  The Avid software is tested with specific software versions which are then published
    as being supported.  Deviations could put you in an unsupported state and could lead to performance
    problems

    I know that, but 4.02 supports SP1 or SP2 according to the readme. What I want to know is if there is ANY advantage to upgrading the system to SP2.

    For me SP2 was the first (relatively) decent version of Vista. 4.0.2 running very well on it here (Business 64)

    Thanks for the continued dongle support
