Does Window XP Service pack 2 affects WF2?

[gwenn]

Hi all,

Our IT dept just installed window xp service pack 2 on my pc and i find that WF2 is running slower than usual. A simple model is even rotating slower than it used to. Will this problem has anything to do with SP2? Has anyone has a similar problem before?

Thanks!

If I'm not mistaken the XP SP2.0 has the firewall which is defaulted to activate. Maybe if you disengage this things will get better. I'm running Pro/e 2001 and didn't notice any differences but I disengaged it anyway.

Thanks Heckler! I've found a fix to the problem. It was a graphics issue rather than a WF issue. I just had to update the driver for the graphic card and the problem is gone.

Thanks anyway!
