Guest levitra Posted October 25, 2008 Report Share Posted October 25, 2008 Hi, I've been running Windows XP home addition for YEARS now. I just borrowed service pack 2 CD from a friend. Is there anything I should do before I install it? Is it a risky install? I dont have any service packs right now. Should I backup my files first? anyone? Thanks!

shockersh Posted October 26, 2008 Report Share Posted October 26, 2008 You should consider skipping SP2 and go directly to Windows XP SP3. It's been out since May 2008 and most of the problems with AMD proc's have been resolved. -SS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Animis Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Yeah there is no need to install SP2 since it is included with SP3. Always keep up to date with all Windows and Security updates otherwise you WILL download a virus just by surfing the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
