  • Upgrade XP from SP2 to SP3

    Support for WinXP will end in April 2014, but existing support is for only XP SP3.

    I just had to reload windows and my installation disc contains only Win XP SP2. It has a link to SP 3 to www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24 , but it says that the update of the single computer use the Auto updates. This creates a problem t when you have only SP2 you cannot use auto update for SP3 because SP2 is no longer supported!  When I use the automatic update it does not download anything at the programmed time.  If I try to manually connect to update, it is said that SP2 is trying to connect to the page is not found.

    How do I get the version of the single computer to SP3 so I can upgrade from SP2?

    How to download Windows XP SP3

  • Accidentally updated my copy of Windows XP from SP2 to SP3. Is this legal?

    original title: upgrade WIndows XP error!

    I had windows xp edition SP2 family and my friend decided to upgrade using an illegal copy of windows xp service pack 3, is there anyway I can return to my legal version or be able to activate the one I have.

    Thank you

    Well, it's not really illegal to install windows on windows.

    in other words, let's say your computer preinstalled with windows sp2 came.

    then you went to the store and bought windows sp3 and sp2 installed.

    the scenario would not be illegal, but it would be a waste of money.

    Therefore, if the sp3 of windows that is installed on your system has not been activated on another computer 'or' it was turned off from the other computer, which is uninstalled, then use it on another computer is not illegal.

    personally, I have not seen the above scenario so my entry is somewhat limited.   but the good side of things is that if your sp3 windows is activated and can update microsoft servers, then you're ok.

    on the good side of things, now you have a bootable xp sp3 cd which can be handy for repairing the operating system if necessary in the future.

    in the meantime, don't make any more changes to your system or try to undo what you have now.

    First, confirm or not if windows sp3 is still active on another computer or has it been uninstalled from him.

    In addition, you may be able to simply replace the new product key with your first.

    Take a look at this Web page and look under the tab for xp:

  • Windows vista family premium sp2 won't start at all either

    I have a Windows Vista Home Premium, which was very rude! It crashes just before the Welcome screen and rest like this in normal mode and last good configuration. In the three security modes, files stop loading right after C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\aswRvrt.sys. The computer was purchased, everything as it came out, was super fast and since I got the Internet (LAN) on this subject, sometimes it goes really slow, refuses to boot and gets a major undetectable virus once a week only from google.com, youtube.com and Craigslist.com, which I know that Craigslist is full of virus, but whenever I go to block the program that I use freezes and crashes. I tried to boot from a disc, which it refused to boot from, even after changing the BIOS settings. Also when I use it on a date limit, she loves just freezing and crashing and threatened to get a bat with its screen. I'm not not ready to make a clean start, as I have already had to replace twice RAM and HARD drive once. The first HARD drive, we had, contained more than 3 years of photos and data, had to replace because of the Prime Minister being VERY lazy avg. Now I use avast internet security which is also slacking off the coast. Our computer does not come with a boot and repair the drive. It is not over heating and is free of dust, as I just cleaned it. The only thing that made everyone on the computer before it crashed was plants vs. zombies, Craigslist, google.com, youtube, and cars.com unless there is something I don't know. Any help would be a miracle.

    Hello

    You say that you can not it Boot from a disk even after changing the Boot order in the Bios.

    Remove the hard drive and it slave in another computer and do a Malware Scan on it.

    Use RKill to stop malicious processes

    RKill does NOT remove the malware; It stops the Malware process that gives you a chance to remove it with your security programs.

    http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/rkill/

    Then, download, install, update and scan your system with the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware in Mode safe mode with networking:

    http://www.Malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

    "Utility of anti-rootkit TDSSKiller.

    http://support.Kaspersky.com/5350?El=88446

    See if that fixes it.

    Otherwise you can always back up your data using this method and then do a clean install.

    Saving your files:

    You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure or it slave in another computer > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

  • How can I delete my family xp SP2 and SP3.

    I'm moving to XP Pro, but my XP Home is XP3 and the Pro upgrade is SP1.  I tried "Add / Remove Programs" to do this, but it doesn't give me any options.

    Check out the information on the website of NLite. With the help of NLite makes very easy "slipstreaming". AFAIK, you can integrate a copy upgrade. In all cases, the integrated installation process doesn't your underlying operating system so no worries there.

    Just a note for future recovery - you need to pick up any installation media, license keys, etc. for your extremely expensive software. At some point, your hard drive will die and/or Windows must be reinstalled and you will need to install these programs. Be prepared. Just say ". ;-)" MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

    Hello

    The problem with viruses on the computer, I would say that you download and run a full scan of the system using the Microsoft Safety Scanner.

    Here is the link for the Microsoft Safety Scanner which is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

    Note:

    Data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely.
    which means that there is a risk of data loss.

  • Windows XP need to upgrade to SP2 or SP3

    Hello

    I have Windows XP SP1.  I need to upgrade to SP2 or SP3.   There are free downloads online.  can I use them? or should I buy from you?  Please me know

    Thanks in advance

    You don't need to buy anything. If you check in Windows updates, service packs must be put at your disposal. (Unless it's an illegal copy of XP).

    If you installed SP1a, you can ignore the SP2 and go right to SP3. If SP1 is installed, to install the SP2 and SP3.

    Before you install, disable your antivirus and anti-spyware such as Windows Defender programs. If you are using another firewall, disable and enable Windows Firewall in the control panel for the installation. Once a requires SP3 and working, you can activate the third-party firewall and put the Windows Firewall. Do not keep the two running.

  • Tecra A9 move from Win XP SP2 to SP3 - questions?

    Anyone have trouble with their Tecra A9 when upgrading to Windows XP SP2 to SP3? I've heard horror stories with other laptops that users lock their systems or lose functionality.

    Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences.

    Hello

    I m not Tecra A9 owner but I already installed the SP3 Win and I didn't notice any strange problems after installing SP3.
    Of course, it might be possible that some drivers would not fully compatible with some fixes and patches but it seems that I m a lucky guy and there is nothing wrong with my operating system.

    But to be honest; I didn't notice any improvement after the installation of Sp3.
    However, you can install Sp3 on your system and if you have great compatibility problems you'd still be able to remove the SP3 of the system.
