Yes, if you open a Cmd prompt window and call Winver, the
system with Sp3 will identify itself as:
Version 5.0 ( Build 2600.xpsp_sp3 ....

Microsoft Windows
Version 5.1 (Build 2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.080814-1236:Service Pack 3)

I think it means you have SP3

Is there such a thing as a build 2600?

Windows XP /is/ build 2600

Microsoft code:

dwPlatformID dwMajorVersion dwMinorVersion dwBuildNumber
95 1 4 0 950
95 SP1 1 4 0 > 950 && <= 1080
95 OSR2 1 4 < 10 > 1080
98 1 4 10 1998
98 SP1 1 4 10 > 1998 && < 2183
98 SE 1 4 10 >= 2183
Me 1 4 90 3000

NT 3.51 2 3 51 1057
NT 4 2 4 0 1381
2000 2 5 0 2195
XP 2 5 1 2600


if you type "ver" at a command prompt you should get this returned:

Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

(This is on XP Pro SP3)

I'm not certain but, I believe that the basic version number of Windows XP
is 5.1.2600 and then the various service packs add on numbers to that i.e.:
2600.xpsp_sp3_gdr.080814-1236 (service pack 3). Check out the version
numbers of the majority of files in your system32 folder. You will find
that most of them have the number 2600 in them. This refers to the fact that
they belong to XP. (If I am wrong about this, somebody please let me know)

Windows 98 Second Edition Build number can be equal to or greater than 2183
and less than or equal to 2222

Yes, that was what I was trying to convey. The "2222" was not present
in the original post, but I wasn't sure if "2222" was indeed the final
version.

Oh!!

Yes, when I look at the post on the NG it isn't in the list, but if I look
at the source of my post (as I sent it) it is - very weird.

Sorry about that
