Sp1 Refuses To Install

[true_neo]

Im using WinXP, and today I reformatted the Winblows partition and reinstalled XP Pro.
I can get into winblows update just fine and install anything but SP1.

So can anyone PM me a link to the full offline installing of SP1?
thanks

I had this problem, i can&#39;t remember the exact solution but it something to do with reseting a flag from 1 to 0 as the pc thinks that it already has sp 1 installed, I&#39;ll try and find the fix and let you know :)

i dont know why you guys made it so complicated but mine installed ok...

doesn&#39;t even require me to click anything...it just installed itself... :P

@trueneo, what happens when you try to run update, do you get ann error message or anything?

because microsoft has blocked this and a few other serial keys being used to update to sp1.

when I click intall it just says Installation Aborted lol.

And Im using one of many XP Pro cdkeys I got.
I can try changing it, any recommended software?

If your using the Devil&#39;s Own you got to use a different CORP key not a PRO key.

Nah keys I can produce, I got the XP KeY ReCoVeRER which finds, tests and benchmarks keys lol.
It was just a matter of finding a key changer software ;) Thanks :D

Here is a copy of Winxp keygen (http://filesharingtalk.com/index.php?showtopic=69402&hl=) plus other program that tells you your cd key. :rolleyes:

I assume you tried to track the error down through the windows update help and support area? :unsure:

[true_neo]

@Ariel: Thats the keygen I got :P

@Zero cool: No I didnt cos there wasnt any error mesage as such. It just said aborted :lol:


At any rate, I can install it now even tho the key changer didnt work :P
It turns out it was that blasted XP Antispy which had disabled summit SP1 wants.
Maybe I shouldnt of been that fast with pissing with those settings eh XD :lol:
