Windows XP SP1

[James D]

A lot of the posts I've been reading have had some things to say about SP2
and the problems it's been causing people. I'd like to get a copy of SP1. I
tried going to Microsoft, but it keeps taking me to the update page and all
I see it SP2. Anyone know where to download SP1?

Thanks guys, Don't know why I was having trouble finding it.

By the way, what is the difference between 1 and 1a?
