Upgrading to SP2 should be mandatory. It also shouldn't be slowing your system down. Either it's all in your head or you have something else causing the slowdowns. In the past when SP2 first came out everybody that had a problem with SP2 that asked me for help had some sort of malware on their computer that was actually causing the problem. They had malware on their PC before updating to SP2 and then it would slow down or mess something up. Of course, everybody likes to blame things on SP2 and not malware.

I guarantee if you install SP2 on a fresh install or slipstream it you won't notice any slowdowns.

I'm with Drew. SP2 rules; ignore the berks.
