Windows XP-pack3

[GH]

My PC has installed Windows XP pack3, and I want to install Internet explorer
7.0 but it is only for Windows XP-service pack2 or Windows XP-pro 64.

What can I do?

IE7 is not just for SP2 or XP-pro 64
You got some bad information.
Download the version for 32 bit and you will be fine.

[X-post to IE General]

You can install IE7 in WinXP SP3 but it won't be offered by Windows Update
now.

Required reading IMHO before installing IE7:

Sandi's Installation Tips for IE7 <= Steps #1-8, #10 & #11; take note of
#12, then STOP!
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install
(ignore any references to Vista)

IE7 will not be offered via Windows Update. You can download the installer
here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=9ae91ebe-3385-447c-8a30-081805b2f90b

Save the installer to your desktop, do not Run it. Then double-click on the
saved file when you're ready to install IE7.

Make *certain* that you check in at http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
immediately after installing IE7, select the CUSTOM option & scan. Install
any critical security updates offered. If Optional Updates category offers
Root Certificates update, install it to take full advantage of IE7's
additional security.

NB: DO NOT INSTALL IE8! Uncheck it then "hide" it.

I have read the posts showing you the way to install IE7. They should all
work. But I suggest you should install IE8 right away, because it is
definitely better than IE7.

You have misunderstood or been told incorrectly.

Install IE 7.0 if you so desire - it works fine with the system you
described having.
