XP Service Pack 4
« on: April 14, 2013, 06:25:17 pm »
Hi Shane i see there is a XP Service Pack 4

I currently have SP3.

   1.  Windows updates aren't updating to SP4, do i do it manually?
   2.  Can Service Pack 4 be loaded onto another XP computer that isn't online?
   3.  What do Service  Packs basically do?

Thanks in advance

It is a ton of updates and changes to the system. You have to download the full sp3 setup and put it on cd or thumb drive and then you can go and install it on a machine that isnt online :wink:
