Insert Windows SP2 Diskette

K

Kevin

I'm trying to re-install windows on my laptop. It keeps saying to "insert
Windows XP sp 2 disk." Can anyone tell me where to get this disk?

If I bypass the pop-up, it says the version you are trying to install is
older than the one currently installed and will not let me continue.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks, Kevin

You have two options:

1. Do a full install instead of the repair install that you are trying to
do. You must boot from CD in order to do this.

2. Download SP2 to you HDD. Slipstream SP2 into your installation disc.
This assumes that you are using a retail or OEM version of Windows XP, not a
"Restore CD" that came with your computer.
