How to upgrade xp 5.1?
I recently did a restore of the entire system on an old hp Pavilion and it now has only Windows XP 5.1. Not having does not muck luck going back to SP3.
Automatic Updates does not work and I can not install SP3 without SP1 or SP2 first. "Xp Service Pack 1 a quick installation" does not either - every time, they no longer w / microsoft as a third of the way through... and I can't find a full download that I can burn it to disk or run from USB key.
I also tried SP2... but the link for "XP Service pack 2 for it PROFESSIONALS... "is completely broken/dead.
Where can I get one of these?
Thank you
Preliminary work:
http://www.Microsoft.com/en-US/Download/details.aspx?ID=28 (for SP2)
http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?ID=24 (for SP3)
(You can TOTALLY ignore the message "intended for it professionals"!)
http://www.Microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&ID=43 (for IE8)
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/products/security-essentials (for MMS)
1. physically disconnect from the Internet. Also unplug all unnecessary devices!
2. temporarily disable the automatic updates. To do this:
Start | Control Panel (switch to Classic view if not already selected). Automatic updates
Select "Turn off automatic updates" and click OK.
3. install SP2. Restart TWICE.
4. install the SP3. Restart TWICE.
5 move to IE8. Restart TWICE. (Note: it is important to let IE at the level before the upgrade to SP3 IE6.) After you are in SP3, then you can switch IE6 to IE8).
6. install MSE.
(What happens very often is that someone has their software antivirus running as they try to install SP3, which often translates into chaos! "This is why it must be done after installing SP3 and IE).
7. make sure that firewall Windows is activated (it should already be):
Start | Control Panel | Security Center
(Now you can physically reconnect to the Internet. Update Antivirus program.)
8 visit Windows Update to download and install only the critical security updates. Restart each time you are prompted.
9. reactivate the automatic updates.
ADDENDUM:
If you currently have a trial version of Norton or McAfee, hold off on the updates for now and let me know which you have!
FINAL NOTE:
If you find some of the links are "dead", you may use another PC and download the files on a USB flash drive.
THE LAST NOTE:
This link is dead! I'll see if I can find the links to spare for you. :-)

How to upgrade a newly purchased iWatch series 1?

Hello
Apple's Standard return policy is 14 days.
Your sister can ask Apple if they will allow an exception, but I'm afraid that no one here can tell you what Apple decides (there is a community based on the user).
Also note that the 1 series does not refer to this first generation watch. He referred to a new Apple Watch model that has the same characteristics as the original Apple Watch, with the exception of a new dual-core processor.
