I currently have a Dell Reinstallation CD for XP Pro - SP2. I recently had
to use it and was able to reinstall Windows without any problems. After
installation I used the Windows Update site to get all the current updates.
I believe I've read here that after July, 2010 SP2 will no longer be
supported. If I have use my OEM disk after July will I still be able to
download Service Pack 3 from Windows Update? or should I go ahead and
download the iso file from
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...CE-B5FB-4488-8C50-FE22559D164E&displaylang=en
and copy it to a CD. I assume if I do this then I would be able to use the
copied iso file to update directly to SP3 without going thru the Windows
Update site - correct?
