Need help to download Service Packs
Could someone tell me how to download Service Packs for Windows XP where I don't have a web connection. I tried to download the Service Pack 1 (a) through to Service Pack 3 since Christmas day and all I get can't seem to download. So if there is someone out there who is more computer savvy could you please help me with this. I would be very happy.
Why do you think that you need service pack1 (a)? To check the level of service pack for your system, click Start>run, and then in the Run dialog box, type "winver". Click on 'OK'. Depending on your level of service pack, you can download the pack of service from the links below.
Windows XP SP 1 (a).

Windows XP SP2.

Windows XP SP3.

Having the upgrade of questions after recovery on Windows XP Edition version 2002 service pack 1 family. Okay, I found the recovery partition patch I needed and download claims it was successful, so I then try to download the Service pack 2 and nothing happening, no error, nothing. Still not sure that it worked. Yet I am unable to download service pack 3 and my updates still do not work. So I guess that the Service Pack 2 does not load correctly. What should I do now? Help?

Recently installed new h-drive. Re-installed XP Home with services Pack 1 a. I need to get the Service Pack 2 and 3, but none of Microsoft download sites will work for me. What should I do to fix this?
You don't need sp2 (which is a chance, l because the sp2 link no longer works).

Download Service Pack 2 or later on a disc
I have an old computer in my office not connected to the internet, and I just bought a new printer that requires the Service Pack that is not on the old computer. Can I use another computer connected to the net to download service Pack 2 on a drive and then insert it into the old computer?
Hello
Yes...
First of all, you need to install SP2 - download from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=28
You can install SP3 - download from http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=24
Don't worry about the text which says that these are network facilities, they work very well for standalone computers.

I need to go to Service Pack 3 to run a new tax program, but windows update said I'm not Administrator ad. I should add that I get error # 0x8DDD0002
When you try to down load the service pack from 'Windows Update'.
I need to go to Service Pack 3 to run a new tax program, but windows update said I'm not Administrator ad.
Given that you do not specify this error message you receive, I guess you have found "Service Pack 3 Setup error. Access is denied. "since you mention that you run under the admin account.
Download and install Service Pack 3 from HEREmanually. Save the file to your desktop. Double-click on the file and choose run. Make sure you disable any malware software and anti-virus first.
