Download SP3 without installing?

[Gerald Bramwell]

Hi,

How do I go about downloading a copy of SP3 without it automatically
installing? I wish to get a copy to add to a slipstream CD of Windows XP
home and all my drivers.

Thanks,

Gerald

This is what I used:

Download the SP3 cd-rom image file (.ISO) and either install from the iso
(by installing winimage.exe's [free] filedisk program OR Microsoft's [free]
Virtual CD program to mount and ISO as a virtual drive ) or you can simply
create a cd-rom out of it by burning a disk from it.

Download the XP SP3 cd-rom .ISO image file from:

Thanks to you all,

I had searched, but it always tried to install after the download.

Don`t you get the "run" and "save" options ?
