SP4 Nightmare
Last night I've installed, using Remote Desktop, the Windows 2K SP4 on our Web Server.
Yes I know, I've to wait, I've to test it, I've to check that everything goes well in a test environment, but... hey I couldn't resist so I've installed it.
The Server rebooted and after some minutes I went back to check that everything was ok, but... Nothing happened, no Remote Desktop, no WWW, no PING, nothing...
I've spent all the night thinking "...ok Lorenzo you have to wait, you have to test, you cannot do risky things over the RD, tomorrow morning you aren't in the office, what do you do now..." and so on.
This mornig I called our office and I discovered that there was an Hardware failure during the Power On Self Test... @#!?@# a simple F1 after reboot and everything is ok...
So, let's wait for SP5... or perhaps I can try a remote update to W2K3.... I'm joking, I know that's impossible, but perhaps on the next Windows version...
What do you think?
