I have attempted multiple times this evening to download
service pack 1 which my system says is the critical
update missing. I continue to lose my connection to the
server. Granted I am trying to download the service pack
with my modem connection not DSL. The message tells me
that if I continue to recieve the error, I should go to
the XP Service Pack Website for instructions on how to
download without an internet connection. So far I haven't
been able to find that information. If anyone could help
I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
DD
 
I had the same problem that you are having.

Go to grc.com/xpdite/xpdite.htm

There you will find a tiny program that will take care of
the main problem that the service pack was designed for,
and it's free.
Read the whole page >>>VERY interesting. Also tells of
problems that the "service program" its self can create.
Check out the whole site ... there are some
other "freebies" that you might want for security
reasons, like the "unplug"

Hope this helps ... it took care of me !
