Sevice Pack 2 before 1?

[ChrisC]

Can you intall service pack 2 before 1 if you have to do a brand new
install? I assume you can, as you could with previous versions of
windows and service packs.

 

[Benn Wolff]

Only install service pack 2,

 

[ChrisC]

Only install service pack 2,

So that's a yes I assume.

Read what Benn said - that's a NO!

Chuck your XP1 CD in the bin; it's now obsolete.

 

[Tom]

I take it you meant for him to chuck "SP1 CD" in the bin, not his XP CD?

In any case Chris, SP2 is all you need, as service packs are cumulative.

Well, I only got one letter wrong
