    You are not the first to ask questions about how to upgrade a clean Windows XP - not even installation in the last week. In fact, I will just cut and paste my answer here... here:

    Get SP2 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

    Install it.

    Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

    Get SP3 (manually) and save it to your desktop. (There's a link here.) [You are a COMPUTER professional for now.]

    Install it.

    Then restart at least a couple of times for a few minutes between each restart.

    Download at least Internet Explorer 7 (if it is not Internet Explorer 8).

    Install it.

    Reset.

    Now, try to get the updates through the normal web page (http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/) and see how much more you can get (100 +) and keep checking until you no longer have.

    Back - let everyone know if it worked for you.

    Last week, I installed a new hard drive in my laptop and reinstalled Windows Vista Ultimate Edition.  He went through a bunch of updates of windows every day until I'm pretty up to date now.  My problem is that whenever I start, it tries to install windows update kb975364 and it gets the 8024200d error code.  I was not able to get information on why this happens.  I tried to download and install the update manually and it says that it does not apply to my computer.  If this is true then why is my automatic windows update tries to load it?

    I suggest that you run the following to verify that everything is good on your system.
