Any reason 1999 ibm thinkpad x20 freezes repeatedly on windows xp SP2?
I had the same problem - formatted hard disk and then attempted fresh install of XP SP2 on an 2000 model of the Thinkpad X20. It booted up with the Blue Screen error every time. The solution for me was to: 1) Install Windows 2000 Pro - this is what came on the system, 2) Fully update Windows 2000 Pro, 3) Update all the IBM/Lenovo software on the system - especially the embedded controller and the BIOS, 4) Install XP SP2 as an upgrade from Windows 2000 Pro, 5) Fully update Windows XP. Note that formatting the hard disk and attempting a fresh install of XP SP2 directly always ended in failure - Blue Screen. I had to take the upgrade path to make it work. Hope this helps.
How many MB's is xp sp3 in windows update?
Depends. Windows requires that you have SP1 installed and recommends you have SP2 installed, but SP2 it is not necessary, in order to install SP3. So if you have just SP1 installed you are going to get SP2 and all subsequent updates along with SP3. If you have SP2 installed the SP3 update is around 16.1 MB. If you have only SP1 installed the download will be as much as 57.5 MB. It all depends on what you already have installed. I suggest you install SP2 before installing SP3. I also suggest you let Automatic Updates install this at a time when you are not on the computer. If you are on Dial-Up, order SP3 CD from Microsoft.

No, Microsoft only supports Windows XP SP2 and SP3, Windows 2000 SP4, Windows Server 2003 SP1 and SP2, and Windows Vista.
