The delay in XP SP3 and stoppage of Vista SP1 were both attributed by the company to the same problem -- a compatibility issue, although no further details were disclosed.
On two separate occasions yesterday, Microsoft announced a delay in the release of Windows XP Service Pack 3, and later pronounced stopping of automatic updates for Windows Vista Service Pack 1 as well.
The delay in XP SP3 and stoppage of Vista SP1 were both attributed by the company to the same problem -- a compatibility issue, although no further details were disclosed. However, Microsoft confirmed that due to this problem, Microsoft Dynamics Retail Management System would not be able to work with either operating system update.
While Windows XP SP3 was originally slated for release yesterday, Windows Vista SP1 was released only last week. The stoppage of automatic updates for Vista SP1 is only temporary, Microsoft said. The company regrets the inconvenience caused to customers but maintains that it is only in their best interests ultimately. Fixes for these problems are claimed to be currently in testing, and would be made available as soon as the process is complete.

I'm afraid of microsoft updates now. I totally turned off automatic updates for this same reason. nowadays it is better to update manually or not at all unless necessary.

I have already installed Vista SP1 and it caused my HP All-In-One scanner to no longer work. Seems to have fixed some of my Outlook 2007 issues. Still slower than molasses however and my desktop and folder views constantly rearrange themselves.
