Should I put thermal paste on the CPU or does the shuttle have its own thingy?
Should I take the Scan serial number sticker off the CPU?
Also, does Windows XP X64 need SP2 or what? Or is it already at that stage.
Any other advice welcomed!
not got a SN25P but heres what I would do.
1: cant remember if shuttle comes with any thermal paste.... use Artic silver on the core as you would normally
2: does the sticker say void if removed? if it's stuck on the core I would remove
3: install Windows xp64 and do a windows update should tell you what updates are needed.

1. Get some Artic silver its worth it.
2. Agreed if its on the core take it off it will effect the cooling of the CPU and likely to burn if paper.
3. Windows 64 is on its own SP1 the windows update will do all that for ya. Just remember W64 modem support is flaky, make sure if you have a USB Modem drivers are out or no internet for you! (this happened to me).
