XP SP3 Warning.

Service Pack ate my hamster.

Oops! It would appear that the rigourous pre-release testing Microsoft applies to patching and update has failed…again (remember SP2?). Microsoft has said that, due to a ‘compatability issue’, the updates should not be applied to machines running MS Dynamics RMS (Retail Management System). DRMS is a Microsoft application designed to handle retail chain management for small to medium sized companies. The glitch has caused Redmond to delay the SP3 release through Windows Upate and Microsoft Download Center.

The issue is also seen in Vista Service Pack 1. Microsoft is planning to filter automatic deployment of both Service Packs to systems running DRMS until the issues is resolved.

Hmm, no comment!
