Hi Kenny_47,

There is no XP, 2003; If you want to upgrade your XP SP2 to SP3, download it here:-http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24
I suggest to install the following updates before installing XP SP3:
  1. Windows Installer for XP from:-http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8483
  2. Download and install the Windows Update Agent: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943144/en
You are using an original CD of Office 2003?

  • Cannot connect to internet after upgrading to windows xp professional version 2002 service pack 1.

    Hello

    My labtop is hp nc6000. I have upgraded to windows xp professional version 2002 service pack 1 and I can't connect to the internet.

    I used another computer desktop to download service pack 2 and 3, but still cannot install these due to no internet connection.

    I also tried to upgrade the drivers of hp nc6000 obtained from another computer, but received a message that the package cannot be decompressed - another copy must be obtained.

    Please help with kindness.

    Thank you.

    Are you trying to connect wireless or ethernet cable? Have you checked your connections are enabled? If you use the wireless option, you use the hp or windows connection manager?

    I sugest you try to connect with an ethernet cable and go to the network connection in Control Panel and check if your local connection is enabled. If you connect through a router has the DHCP settings.

    If you use the wireless you will need to enter the connection as a new SSID and key details

    Change the settings of the REGISTRY can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the REGISTRY settings configuration can be solved. Changes to these settings are at your own risk.

  • Cannot install service pack 4 Windows on Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2

    I have recently installed windows service pack 3 and now when I try to install service pack 4, I get this
    Error installing Service Pack 4:
    The version of windows that you are trying to install does not match the update you are trying to install
    My Info to the computer:
    Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 2
    Toshiba
    Tecra
    Intel (R) Celeron (R) M
    processor 1.50 G

    No, it means that you are misunderstand any error message you see.  There is no service pack 4 for Windows XP.  All reputable antivirus meant for Windows XP software will install on Windows XP service pack 3.  If you have problems to install antivirus software, your computer may already be infected.

    You must install one antivirus resident program.  Do not install the Avast and AVG; Choose a.  You can have other anti-malware of on demand software.  The best of them is MalwareBytes AntiMalware (free).

    If you would like more information, please proceed as follows:

    1 display the full text, without paraphrasing, of any error message you get when you try to install a software of your choice.

    2. after the URL (link) of the Web site from which you downloaded the antivirus installation package.

    3. click on start, then run, then type the following command in the "Open" box and click OK

    Msinfo32.exe

  • Problem with my pc running on Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3

    Whenever I started in the last 2 weeks the date and time did not update automatically.

    Despite the manual update each time by clicking on 'Apply' then 'ok' it still does not next time.

    Example of today, the system was still dated Saturday last about 21:35, although the actual date and time was 12/11/11 and 11:22!

    Antivirus running analyses are virus-free.

    The system works well, it's just that niggling question.

    Advice appreciated, thanks.

    See your regional and Language Options in Control Panel and make sure you're ready for the correct location.  Also, I would check under Date and time and check your time zone.

  • I am running Microsoft Windows XP Home edition Version 2002 Service pack 3, use the 32-bit or 64-bit upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium?

    running Microsoft Windows XP Home edition Version 2002 Service pack 3, used the 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade?

    I followed the instructions on the card that came with the software... indicating that, if I look at my computer it was telling me that my computer works... either 64 or 32, but it does not work.  So my question is, how do you know?

    You probably have the 32-bit version of XP (in most individuals, and if your system properties page does not have 64-bit, then you have 32-bit.)

    However, if you now have XP 32 - bit or 64-bit XP isn't the issue that relate to your decision to install 32-bit or 64-bit Windows 7.  This decision depends on the question to know if your hardware can support a 64-bit operating system.  In this regard, the main reason for users to install a 64-bit operating system is to allow the use of more than 4 GB of RAM.  If your hardware does support more than 4 GB of RAM, there is no interest to install the 64 bit version of Windows 7.

    You run the Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor?  With what results?

    Click Start > run and type msinfo32 in the "Open" box and click OK.
    After the system information window has had time fill, click Edit > select all, and then click Edit > copy.

  • I'm temporarily using a diesel powered computer, running Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 3

    I temporarily uses a computer filled with diesel fuel, until I can afford to replace it with an updated model. It is using Windows XP Home Edition, Version 2002, Service Pack 3.
    The problem is that it's totally out of memory and as far as I know, I deleted everything I can, short of service packs and security features, such as malware and anti virus.
    I do a disk Clean up and Defrag on a regular basis, but it shows now that I have zero remaining memory.
    Anyone know how I can free up more memory?
    What happens if I delete ServicePack 1 & 2?
    What happens if I use the restore disc came with the computer? It will remove everything and I start with a clean slate?
    Unfortunately I can't replace this computer for a few months more, what should I do?
    Thank you
    Monica

    You run lack of disk space, not memory, if that's your hard drive, you're referring to :-)

    If you have the service pack installation files on your PC, you can probably pick up near a GB removing them (most likely you do not have).
    You can remove security updates uninstall files and pick up some space here: http://news.cnet.com/8301-13880_3-9862223-68.html
    If there are programs that you use rarely or never, you can uninstall them.

    If you use the recovery disk, it most probably restore you to the day; No program, no service pack, no update of safety, nada, just WinXP right out of the box. I wouldn't recommend, unless you have nothing better to do with your time than to reinstall all your stuff. And if this isn't in SP3, then you will not be able to download updates of security.

    If you have a little cash on hand, you can always get a bigger hard drive and clone this player to the largest (most new hard drives come with software to do). Or if you have geek friends who save ALL their old stuff (like I do), maybe one of them would have a replacement part that they would be willing to give you. Wouldn't hurt to ask :-)
