SP2 + Necessary Patches (UPDATED)

After using Sonar with SP1 (service pack 1) for many years I have finally decided to update my system to SP2. (I did the "in-place" upgrade method using a slip-streamed CD, which I recommend over just running WindowsXP-KB835935-SP2-ENU.exe.)

Does Sonar 7 require the same SP2 patches (hotfixes) and settings that sonar 4 did? See these:

(1) Patch: WindowsXP-KB319740-v5-x86-ENU.exe (resource leak)
http://www.cakewalk.com/Support/kb/kb2005243.asp

(2) Patch: WindowsXP-KB896256-v4-x86-ENU.exe (dual core and hyperthreading)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/896256/

(3) Settings: DEP (data execution prevention):
http://www.cakewalk.com/support/kb/kb2004216.asp

I know there are a lot of patches that dual-core people need, but I still have an older Pentium IV 3.4 Ghz with Hyper threading.

So are there any other necessary sp2 hotfixes I need to make Sonar 7 run properly?

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks,
HG

    I don't know if S7 really needs them but I also slip-streamed XP with SP2 and the KB319740 hotfix.
    S7 now runs on my system installed with that particular CD (and no additional updates) quite fine.

    cheers,
    Chris

    ...maybe I never realized the joy till the joy was gone...

    Soundcards are still M Audio Deltas and FW1814, until Santa comes !
