Failed to load Service Pack 1
I have an old XP computer I want to give to a college student, but he is slow so I reformatted the drive and reloaded original XP software. I had planned to charge all service packs to make it current. When you try to load the Service pack 1, I get an error message "the server has failed", while he was at the point of reloading that says "connection to http://xpSP1.microsoft.com/isapi/pstream3.dll/xp/SP1.USA.1106a. any ideas what's happening? All load very well with the operatinging system and the Service Pack started to load ok until it got to this point? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Jesse Penn
If you insist on installing SP1a try here instead: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=19751
You do not need to install SP1a service pack, simply install SP2 then SP3.

Hello
1. have you connected external devices other than the keyboard and mouse?
2. what security software is installed on your computer?
I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.
Method 1:
Disable temporarily the security software and then try to load Service pack 3 and check if the problem persists.
Follow the steps to temporarily disable the security software:
a. right click on icon antivirus on the left corner of the taskbar.
b. click Exit or settings and temporarily disable the security software.
Warning: If you need to temporarily disable the security software, you should reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.
Method 2:
Put the computer in a clean boot state, and then try to load Service Pack 3 and check if it works.
