A friend installed this and couldn't run a lot of his programmes. He went to a whole load of trouble trying to sort it out and then ended up using sp1 again. sp1 seems fine at the mo.

Just don't bother!!! If you haven't had any major problems yet then why risk it. At work and at several of our clients offices there have been nothing but problems with SP2. My computer's boot up time just sky rocketed, loads of my programs started to crash regularly and one of our other machines refused to boot to Windows immediately after the install (it even prevented me from using Microsoft's own remote debugging tools in VS.NET!). We've since completely removed it from all machines as have several other companies that I know of.

i think you should use SP1. i think even some audio stuff needs it, plus i never had any problems with it. as for SP2... stay away from it!
