    - 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. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254954

    - Size of .ISO file Recently I updated four PC's with Windows XP SP3. Two are running language NL and two are running language EN-US. 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???

    - Windows Update not Consistent I have two coputers running XP SP2. On one of them the update for IE7 is listed as "high priority" in Windows Update, while on the other IE7 is listed as an "optional" update. Does anyone know why? And which SHOULD it be? Also. On one of the computers, SP3 is "recommended" while on the other, it is not mentioned at all. Why does Windows Update have different recommendations on two pcs who supposedly have the same version of Windows. Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254883

    - Unable to install SP3 I am having trouble installing SP3 on my computer (WindowsXP Professional SP2). The installation runs smoothly until the "Performing cleanup" step, after that it ends with "An error in updating your system has occurred." The error code is: 0x8007F070. I was installing with no antivirus/firewall/any other programs running. The funny thing is that in the Add Remove programs option in Control Panel it is listed as installed and can be uninstalled. Any ideas? Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254877

    - 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. Dick K Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254837

    - 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. Can anyone help please, I'm only a home user and not very technical. Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254835

    - 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: SP3 disk 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: SP3 disk Tag: 254753

    - Windows XP SP3 and .NET upgrades I installed SP3 version 20080414.031525 downloaded from Microsoft today. Installation went OK. Two packages failed (KB928365 and KB928366). Those are .NET 2.0 and .NET 1.1 SP1. There is .NET 2.0 already installed but I cannot either repair or remove it (Contol Panel->Add/Remove Software). I tried to install those two many times. KB928365 - error code 0x663 KB928366 - error code 0xE0434F4D There was an error window: SLx(x).tmp (x(x) was different each time). SLx(x).tmp has encountred a problem and needs to close. History of ugrades: From 2004 it was a plain vanilla XP Home. I had no problem. MSI Motherboard with Athlon64 3000+, 2.0 GHz and 1.5 GB RAM. HDD 120 GB + 320 GB. Dual boot Windows and Ubuntu 8.04 on separated physical drives. A month ago I needed SP2 to run a new hardware (E-MU Tracker Pre USB 2.0). So I upgraded to SP1 + upgrades, SP2 + upgrades. Everything was fine until upgrades to SP2. My computer did boot, past GRUB (dual boot menu), XP screen and Welcome but my desktop had a strange red mark, and my mouse and keyboard were dead. Last known working... didn't help. I started from the last automatic recovery point using Safe Mode. Now everything was fine. At least it seemed so. Sony Vegas didn't work anymore. An error occured during the current operation. The Microsoft .NET runtime could not be initialized. Please install the .NET Framework (download is available from Windows Update). Well, that was the first time I tried to repair and uninstall .NET. Didn't work. Than I installed SP3 RC2. Everything was smooth. But the same problem with Vegas. Now I installed the finel version od SP3 (uninstalled SP3 RC2 before). The Vegas (.NET) problem persist plus upgrades of .NET. Should I try to uninstall .NET 1.1? Or just install entire .NET without uninstall? -- ZoxX Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254716

    - Windows XP SP3 Would have been nice if Microsofts Sub-Contractors would have gotten the bugs out of release version! Tried 3 times to install and haf way thru it locked up! Telling all my friends to not install til Microsoft gets the bugs out! MAYBE MICROSOFT SHOULD HIRE AMERICAN WORKERS AND NOT HIRE FROM OVERSEAS BECAUSE WE DO NOT HAVE ANY AMERICAN WORKERS SMART ENOUGH TO RELEASE WITH BUGS IN IT! -- Ken Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254713

    - started with "blue screen and ended up with "missing system32\hal. Hi folks... I'm praying somone can assist me as I've been waiting to hear back from Microsoft on this as it started (when I noticed - my daughter's computer) when trying to run updates from Microsoft. Her system is older, running XP Pro and there isn't much on it believe it or not. AVG is the anti-virus and I've also tried running some registry scans. No avail, but cleaned a few things up. Mostly having to run in Safe Mode and Safe Mode w/Networking, yet will still eventually end up getting that blue screen and many times re-looping and getting stuck & F8 doesn't always work either. Again, this is my daughterâ??s computer, and I believe this started about a week or so ago. She finally told me a few days ago and when I started taking a look at her system, this is all new, not past issues Iâ??ve experienced. 1. The first thing I tried to do was to run a scan on her system to see if there were virus, etc. 2. Then I tried to run a windows update and thatâ??s when I personally encountered the first blue screen of manyâ?¦ 3. I had already attempted many times to Use the â??Last Known Good Configurationâ?? to no avail, a few times the system couldnâ??t even get to running Windows without having returned directly to the blue screen. 4. Then I was able to use the Safe Mode with Networking, tried running Windows Update that way, didnâ??t work. Multiple attempts each ending in Blue Screen 5. I noticed that a message finally gave me something about a Driver issue, so went to Device Manager, and updated/reinstalled drivers a display screen and a multimedia device (neither of which I am familiar), but then the Device Mgr was clear. 6. Then attempted to run Windows update and it did actually download the Visualization Tool & Installed, thought I was actually getting somewhereâ?¦ But then after it asked me to continue on with scanning for updates, I was back to the blue screen and it proceeded to no longer be able to start Windows again, just re-routing back to Blue Screen. 7. Last Known Good Configuration again, didnâ??t work. I do have screen shots of the blue screens it gives, but the error codes are of no help as the four it gives me, always change. I've finally turned the damn thing off as it was just re-looping to blue screen and couldn't load windows, so after 3 days of tyring to figure it out, I've given up.... Lastly, apparently my daughter turned the computer on, and now all it shows is a black screen with the "missing system32\hal.dll" file. Now I've seen this when I got a brand new system running both Mac & OS systems, when I loaded windows. I figured out a work around for it on the Mac, but this system only runs Windows, so not sure what to do from here with it... She has some things on her system that she's hoping I don't have to do a fresh install so any suggestions are tremendously appreciated. Please let me know what further info I can provide to be of assistance. Thanks so much, Sunny Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254707

    - MBSA/Update Inventory Tool Anyone have an idea as to what version of XML parser is required for MBSA 2.1 and/or Microsoft Update Inventory Tool? None of the March/April Office patches are showing as required and I'm thinking it might be the version of XML parser - 3.0, no SP - that I'm running. Thanks! Tag: SP3 disk Tag: 254703

Will MS be making SP3 available on disk as they did with SP2? Would certainly
make life easier in the event of having to reinstall XP.
