Service Pack 1

Post by winston »

Does anyone know if SP1 for WinXP Pro can be downloaded and put on a cd to be installed on a computer with no internet connection? I have a program that needs sp1 to run. I have been to microsoft's site and there are several downloads but none say sp1 package. thanks winston may

I have a CD, from a downloaded SP1 that I've used with several of my customer's PC's.

After I got SP2, I "slipstreamend" SP2 into my Windows XP (Pro). Now, if (or maybe when) I have to do a clean reinstall it will load XP with all the SP2 upgrades and save having to do that later.
