Recovery Console and SP3

N

Nemesisn4cer

Is there a "newer" version of the recovery console? I was tring to install it
on my XP Pro SP 3 machine when I got an error message that stated the version
of Windows currently on my machine is newer than the recovery program and I
would have to unstall the current version to install ASR. Agian is there a
fix for this or am I just stuck?

You can slipstream an install CD with SP3, then install or run Recovery
Console from it.

Try here, substituting SP3 for SP2

You need to slipstream SP3 into your Windows setup CD
to update the Recovery Console.
