Can i download sp3 onto my computer - Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2

The same way you slip streamed SP3. You can download all the updates here. http://catalog.update.microsoft.com Alternately you update your system to a base install get all the updates and create a ghost image.

WinXP can go directly to sp3 which can use IE8. Microsoft sells sp3 for $4.95 plus postage.

use another computer to download SP2 onto CD or a USB drive, then copy onto your XP SP1, it will provide more dirvers. Be sure and remove the modem before you start all of this. And also look at Computer, Drivers and uninstall any drivers for your modem model. Install SP2 and do windows update. I would also recommend after this to get SP3.

Last step if Windows doesn't have the driver is to get the driver from the manufactures website. Some modems have specific PC software beyond the driver to use it.

THIS GAME RUNS ONLY IN XP SP3 TRY TO GET IT ITS MUCH BETTER THAN VISTA OR JUST EMAIL ME AND I WILL SEND YOU THE DOWNLOAD LINK FOR XP SP3
GOOD LUCK
AND
DONT FORGET TO RATE ^^

Your computer does not reformat when installing SP3, updates will never reformat your computer

if you have access to a another computer that does have internet go to http://www.driverguide.com/ to get the driver info you need control panel device manager/network click plus sign copy info on onto paper and goto other computer and download updated driver for xp sp3 to disc

You are using the Dell Resource CD provided by the manufacturer. This CD may not work with new versions of Internet Explorer that come with SP3 installations (if you reinstalled from a Windows XP CD not provided by Dell or if you did the Microsoft SP3 update).
You're only solution would be to use your "Service Tag" number underneath, for laptops (or on the back/side for Desktops), of your computer and go to http://support.dell.com to download the drivers for your specific system. If this computer doesn't have the drivers for you to be able to go to the internet, use a second computer and go to the site. Then download the individual drivers listed (the latest dated drivers will work best).
Once you've downloaded mainly the Video, Network, Audio drivers, use a USB Flash drive (sometimes called USB Key, USB pen drive, USB drive, etc) and copy what's been downloaded onto it. Do not double click on the files while they're on the second computer.
Once on the machine with Windows XP SP3, double click on each downloaded file (1 at a time) and follow the on-screen insctructions to install the driver. You should be fine afterwards. :) Let us know how it goes, and rate us. :)

You can buy a copy of Windows XP (and I recommend Professional over
home edition) with SP3 here

that's about as close as i can get to that model number... read the information on the page... there is a link to the software update and that may fix the problem you are having

Pleaes take a moment to rate this solution thanks

Ok, I've got it sorted now. The driver that came with the TV stick doesn't like XP SP3.
I found this out there on the internet - not on the supplier web site though:
