• Windows XP Service Pack 2 is installed correctly, and then on reboot I get a blue error screen or green

  Windows XP Service Pack 2 is installed correctly, and then on reboot I get a blue error screen or green.

  The only way that I could finally restart, was safe and then I restored to before I installed SP2.

  WinXP SP2 must have been installed more than four years ago.

  If you haven't installed SP2, you could not possibly have a functional application of the antivirus installed so see...

• Which Service Packs I have install during the installation of operating system?

  I intend to do a clean install of Windows XP Edition family on a replacement hard drive.  At this hour I'll also install updates recommended.  Should what Service Packs I install?

  Microsoft sites are ambiguous or incomplete information.  From my reading, it seems that I need to install the Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2 to install Service Pack 3.  And yet the Service Packs are supposed to be cumulative updates, containing all updates released before the release of the latest Service Pack.  Have to install only the Service Pack 3 would be my preference, which would do the trick.

  What installation plan would give me the desired result (a nice, clean, full of XP and all installation updates recommended) more effective in terms of installation time and using the hard drive?

  After installation, remove the files?  It seems to me (and perhaps I got wrong this impression) that the Service Pack and the individual updates of XP I have installed in the past have left a huge amount of files on my hard drive, the files after successful installation, I might be able to remove without adverse consequences.  My feeling is that Microsoft (and many other reputable software providers) are happy to add you to their software, but they clean up after themselves.

  If you hired a Carpenter to build new cabinets in kitchen at home, he would not let the old cabinets, scrap lumber, loose nails and screws and tools scattered in your kitchen.  It would be to clean up all this in the context of completing the work.  I don't want to be unfair to Microsoft (in case I'm wrong about what they leave on my machine), but if they leave their installation files or obsolete older files (from earlier and now supplanted the Service Packs) on my machine, they are not complete the project.

  Your advice on what to install and how to clean up after installation will be appreciated.  Thank you.

  You must download and install Windows XP Service Pack 3.  Afterwards, visit Windows Update and download available later updates. Carey Frisch

• My computer says it is running service pack 3, but I noticed that two service pack 2 were installed. Is this right?

  My computer has terrible fonctionnee and will not at all.  There a lot of errors blue screen and constant freezes.  It happens all the time.  The fact that service pack 2 is installed would be part of the problem?  Also, is it OK to enter the program records to remove a program if it does not appear in the section install/remove?  Thanks for your help.

  Hi RonGerdes,

  1. where to find two entries for service pack 2 on the computer?

  2. Since when are you the bluescreen or constant freezing on the computer?

  It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you put the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  (c) under the general tab, click the Normal startup option, and then click OK.

  (d) when you are prompted to restart the computer, click on restart.

  If the previous step fails, then check the event viewer to determine the cause of the blue screen on the computer and post back with the details.

• Vista Service Pack 2 - Cannot install

  I have 3 computers, one is Vista Pro, one is Vista Ultimate Edition and a Home editions and on different machines e.g. Sony laptop computer, HP and an Acer. Three are set to perform the automatic download of updates through Microsoft Update and all three fired in Vista Service Pack 2 and the installation failed and referred me http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947821 which in turn installs the update of Windows Vista 32 bit system analysis tool. Who won't install and therefore fails to get what she was supposed to find defects preventing the Vista Service pack work.
  It's on three different machines, so it has to be a phenomenon of great. It cannot be just me.
  There are already countless reports on this forum of the incompatibility issues with the previous updates that must be eliminated, installers windows that need to be repaired and other settings before installation not to mention now reported post blue screen installation. It is to whip up quickly to be a properly tested beta ServicePack. This has not happened once before with Windows 2000 SP2 or 3.
  Anyone working on a solution to this problem?

  Put to update your drivers, download the stand-a-lone version, disable the antivirus and right click on it
  RUN AS ADMIN.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
  video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
  cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
  own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
  (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
  updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
  because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
  pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
  This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
  questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
  manually if you wish.
