    - WSUS Configuration: Don't save updates locally - Question about Space I have a WSUS server with disk space problems. It is saving locally the updates, but I've changed the configuration in order to not save locally the updates, telling my clients to download from Microsoft Update. I've noticed that WSUS doesn't delete the files saved in the disk (folder Wsuscontent)... ¿can I delete the content of folder Wsuscontent or can I make some trouble? I think the info needed from WSUS to work must be only in SQL Server from now, and the files that remain in folders can be deleted, doesn't it? Thanks Tag: Windows XP SP3 downloading Tag: 255019

    - Windows won't load after SP3 update I'm hoping someone can help. I can download and install the Service Pack 3, but when it reboots, it doesn't load correctly and the screen comes up where you can choose how to load Windows (safe, safe w/networking, last known good configuration, normally). I tried last known good configuration, did not work. So I have to load it in Safe mode and uninstall it. All my programs were closed and no anti-virus programs were running when I was installing it.

I used the from MicroSoft downloaded .EXE files without any problem. WindowsXP-KB93629-SP3-x86-NLD.exe size 313.157KB for the PC's using Dutch and WindowsXP-KB93629-SP3-x86-ENU.exe size 324.030KB for the two PC's using English. The size of the two language different files is quite close. Later I downloaded the .ISO files to create NL and EN SP3 CD's. xpsp3_5512.080413-2113_nl_x86fre_spdcd.iso size 377.870KB and xpsp3_5512.080413-2113_usa_x86fre_spdcd.iso size 557.932KB I wonder, why the big size difference between the ISO's???

On one of the computers, SP3 is "recommended" while on the other, it is not mentioned at all.

    - SP3 Download for XP MCE 2005? Please could someone point be to a downloadable version of SP3 which is compatible with XP MCE 2005, if such exists? I ask because I recall reading that SP3 for MCE is only available via Windows Update and the download I've found specifies "Supported Operating Systems: Windows XP Home Edition ; Windows XP Professional Edition ; Windows XP Service Pack 1; Windows XP Service Pack 2", i.e. not MCE. For me, Windows Update has only produced a series of failures on two systems, so I'd like to try something else. Thanks for any help or clarification.

    - Windows XP Home edition SP3 update stops PC booting up I updated windows XP home last night with SP3 the update hung and I had to reboot after 2 hours. When it rebooted a blue screen flashed up and the PC rebooted. It just circles around in this loop. I tried safe mode but it did the same. I can't tell what the blue screen says as it flashes past too quickly. I then tried reinstalling windows, but get back to the same problem when I try to update to SP3. I can now boot into safe mode and restore to before the SP3 update. But if I leave windows in this condition it won't have any of the security updates.

    - Does the SP2 CD image access the Internet during install? I have downloaded the SP3 CD image from the MS Download Centre and copied it to a CD. You recommend that during SP3 installation the anti-virus is disabled, in which case I would like to disconnect the machine from the Internet. Does the SP3 install process access the Internet when running from the CD image? Also, my machine (under French XP Prof) will not run well if Automatic Updates are activated - it hangs initialising the updates, displaying the list of installed programs, accessing the E:\ drive, etc. Will this cause problems with the installation of SP3? (Note that with the auto update service deactivated, it runs fine). Will SP3, if successfully installed, eliminate the above problems? -- David Llewellyn Tag: Windows XP SP3 downloading Tag: 254830

    - Wireless Failure after Service Pack 3 After configuring a new installation of XP at Service pack 2 Compact wireless usb adapter (model wusb54gc) I connected to the update site to download the patches and went ahead with sp3. Since instaling sp3, if I use the XP configuration utility I cannot get any connection and if I use the Linksys tool, I get a very low speed. The only way I got this to work was deleting and reinstalling the device driver. Needless to say I have stopped all upgrading until we can figure out why wireless is being disrupted. Is it USB related or is it wireless? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Tag: Windows XP SP3 downloading Tag: 254753

    - windows xp service pack 3 can anyone help me out here with this question: Loooking on this discussion board, i can see that there are problems with sp3, however I still decided to go and download it. BUT when I go to the windows update website to get SP3, it tells me that infact there are no critical updates to install which means it does not show service pack 3. I do not understand why as I have service pack 2 installed and the update was put on windows update this morning. Anyone know why i have currently denied access to service pack 3? I AM A HOME USER SO THE CONFLICT ISSUE WITH SP3 DOES NOT AFFECT ME. Help would be appreciated because at least you guys on this board can download SP3. Tag: Windows XP SP3 downloading Tag: 254740

When I try update to SP3 via Microsoft Update, after preparing it failes to
download. If I try run isolated installer, it says that I have another
language (I have Windows XP MCE 2005 SP2 Russian, isolated installer is also
Russian). Switching off firewall and antivirus (Norton) does not solve
problem. There is not solutions in other threads.
