• XP - cannot install Service Pack 2 and 3 in order to install anti-virus protection.

  I need to install Service Pack 2 and 3, in order to install a virus program.  I currently do not have one, as my Norton Antivirus program should be uninstalled.  I can't get the Windows Update page to download.  Is there another way to get to this download?  I want to get do it as fast as possible, as I am currently without any virus/spyware protection.

  Thank you!!

  If SP2 to SP3, is not installed, you could not possibly have a functional application of the antivirus installed and missing a value of more than four years of critical security updates! It is not a chance in h * that SP2 & SP3 will install with your computer in its current state, Erica.

  Warning to temporarily disable security software: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must 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.

• Toshiba satellite which is stuck in the installation of service Pack 1. I have service pack 2, can not fix with this cd, can I install service Pack 2 on it without loss of data or files?

  I have the laptop (Toshiba satellite) friend who's stuck in the installation of the service Pack 1.  I have service pack 2 and am wondering, since I can't fix with this cd, can I install service Pack 2 on it without loss of data or files?

  PC claims service pack1 cd with file asms

  When you use service pack 2 cd can not load product catalogues, it is fatal error, the Setup logs files should contain more information.

  Why not integrate Service Pack 2 and Service Pack 3 on her XP CD by following the instructions here (using another PC):

  http://en.community.Dell.com/support-forums/software-OS/w/microsoft_os/1443.aspx
  Copy all data on an external hard drive, do a clean install using the XP CD updated (preferably on the BIOs)
  Then, install the drivers from the system, then Microsoft Security Essentials, Windows 7 Firewall Control (XP free Version) and Malwarebytes' AntiMalware (free or Pro) or whatever you prefer security.
  Then copy the files over.
  This will probably lead to the best performance.

• I can't install service pack 3, I get an error that ntkrnlpa.exe is in use by another application

  I search on the forum and found that another user had the same problem but nobody answered.

  What happened is that I had a few viruses that my computer shuts down completely.  I have simply no money to buy or update of protection against the virus at the moment.  So, my computer crashed.  Then I had to use my system restore disks to restore my computer.  Then, after that I restored my computer now goes to the blue screen and scans files each time.  At the end of the list is a message: unable to write to the boot sector (according to me, it is said).

  Then I accidentally downloaded a virus.  He was disguised as a MS program and was called FixIt.  I couldn't get down there and he asked for credit card information.  I don't give any information and was able to use a browser to display the McAfee, then remove.  Then I used Malwarebytes to remove some other virus.  Not knowing what else to do, I tried to defrag and received an error message that my C: drive has been corrupted.

  My CD Player no longer works and my computer has problems.  I thought that if I downloaded the FixIt problem, it could solve some of the problems it is to have my computer.  It won't work because I have not installed Service Pack 3.

  When I try to intall Service Pack 3, it extracts files and brings me to setupwizard and then gets up to a certain point, and I get an error message as follows:

  c:\windows\system32\ntkrnlpa.exe file is open or in use by another application.

  I don't know what else to do.  I have everything turned off.  I tried to download and save to my desktop and it still won't work.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  When I ran Process Explorer, I have disabled this file ntkrnlpa.exe.  I couldn't tell what was using this file - but I got the Google Redirect virus, so I thought that a virus has access to this file and prevents me from doing anything.  I don't know if that was the case, it was just my guess that it was what was going on.

  It worked for me.  It temporarily disables this file and then you can install Service Pack 3.

  I received instructions on my site quietfish.ca if you want to check.
