Sure, but SP3 isn't really necessary for XP. Either way:

The problem Im having is that I bought a wireless USB adapter..when I put the
installation cd in..the computer tells me that windows in not compatible and
it wont let me download the installation..the computer runs fine but its so
old it doesnt even have a ethernet card in it so I cant even just plug it in
to the router

Here is the link to the download page for the SP3 (Service Pack 3) for
XP cd-rom ISO file.

Download the ISO file then burn it to cd-rom using suitable software
such as 'ISO Recorder'

SP3 ISO file :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...0-fe22559d164e



ISO Recorder (Powertoy Shell Extension)

ISO Recorder V2 (for XP SP2/3) :
http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/v2.htm

ISO Recorder V3 (for Vista) :
http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/Vista.htm
