Windows XP SP2 Download

[Jonj1611]

Have been installing my copy of XP on a Virtual Machine to run some older software however seems like Windows Update no longer functions and as I bought XP on release it has no service packs and the download locations on Microsofts site seems to have disappeared now that support has ended.

Does anyone know where I can download SP1,2 & 3 from?

SP3 is KB936929 on http://catalog.update.microsoft.com/ - the site only works with IE (MS plans to stop using ActiveX for it eventually)
For SP2, search there for 811113.

It has been a while, but I believe that either SP3 is cumulative, *or* you might need to install SP2 first.... I can't remember.

I think I am going to need SP2 as well or 1a. I know it was always a bit odd about SP3.

Many thanks for the link.

SP3 is standalone - with an SP3 iso burnt to disc you can just install that.
