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 attributedby the company to the same problem -- a compatibility issue, althoughno further details were disclosed. However, Microsoft confirmed thatdue 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 ofautomatic updates for Vista SP1 is only temporary, Microsoft said. Thecompany regrets the inconvenience caused to customers but maintainsthat it is only in their best interests ultimately. Fixes for theseproblems are claimed to be currently in testing, and would be madeavailable as soon as the process is complete.
