This is really a matter of personal choice. Windows XP will tell you that SP3 cannot be uninstalled, but I have heard that it actually can. In general, it's best to back up your computer on a frequent basis, and certainly doing a backup before installing a Service Pack is a wise precaution.
You would select the portable setup.
If automatic updating is enabled windows updates should occur as soon as they become available. When shutting down the computer a person may notice that during the shut down process that the computer is installing these updates.
Yes. Windows XP can be upgraded from the RTM release or a service pack to any subsequent service pack. For example: Windows XP RTM ---> Windows XP Service Pack 3 Windows XP Service Pack 1 ---> Windows XP Service Pack 3 Windows XP RTM ---> Windows XP Service Pack 2 Service Pack 3 is the latest service pack for Windows XP; any planned updates should be to this service pack, and not an older one. As per above, you do not need to install any previous service packs before installing Service Pack 3.
you should unplug the system
Because if that battery should run out of power during the installation, you will have to start over from scratch.
Pro Tools 8 needs Windows 7 in order to operate and cannot run on earlier versions of Windows such as XP.
You can stop telnet in windows XP by stopping and disabling the service that is tied to this program. Right-click my computer then click Manage and on the left windows pane click Services then scroll down on the right side until you see the telnet service. That should eliminate the listening of port 23 on this computer. HMTECH78
I installed anti-virus into a computer system while there is another one in existence along the line makes the computer slow dawn.....what should i do. Thanks
Click start, then right-click on "My Computer" and select "Properties". It should be under "Windows edition".
Easy answer to try first is using your windows CD to do a repair install. Go through like you are installing new windows, and when it searches your hard drive it will show you your old windows install folder and ask if you would like to repair it. (don't press r at the first screen for recovery console, that's different)
Click on the Start button at the bottom left of your computer. Right click on the word Computer and click Properties. You should see which Windows you have.
well, sometimes it can do that, but if it's having problems, then you want to run a CCleaner, it should get rid of any bugs that you have
