XP Pro after sp2

[timadam]

I have installed sp2 on my xp pro. Since then, the Microsoft Windows XP
Professional logo does not come up when I reboot the computer, it only says
Microsoft Windows XP. Is this normal?

[Jan]

Yes it is!

Hi

Yes, that is normal now. That's because there are numerous versions of XP -
Home, Pro, Tablet etc. Nothing to worry about.

Yes. "The change reduces the test matrix and uses more
common code across all Windows XP derivatives."

Yes, it's normal. Microsoft switched from separate splash screens
for each version to a single one for all.

Never thought about it till I saw your post. I have Pro and did SP2 maybe a
couple months ago. Never thought about it but mine is the same way...........?
Not sure that will make you feel better or not.

Yes. They decided that keeping multiple versions of the code concerned
just to include the variant (now four variants)was a waste of time.
