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.
