if your copy of xp has sp2 on it then no you won't have to reinstall it. if not, then you will. the first part of reinstalling xp should be formatting which wipes out all your data including the registry, so you will get a new fresh copy

Only Windows SP2 has Security Center. If you don't have it, but you have a genuine Windows (legally bought), just turn on the automatic updates and your old Windows will become SP2 (with Security Center).

SP1 is included in SP2 so you don't really need it unless you want to upgrade XP without SP2, which trust me, is not a very good idea. Lots of nasties out there to which you can succomb while being exposed without every Windows update you can apply.

Windows XP Service Pack (SP) 2 is not only "better" it is a requirement if you are using windows XP.  SP2 is an "upgrade" if you will to the original shipment of Windows XP.  It offers fixes for a number of security holes and other bugs in the software.  In addition as part of some of the security fixes, it brings a standard firewall to windows which is on by default.  It also Enables automatic windows update by default.     And lets not forget the pop-up blocker added to Internet explorer.\n\nService pack2 does not however add anysort of anti-virus protection.  This is still software you will want to purchase from companies like trend micro, symantec, mcafee, etc..\n\nUltimately there were alot of updates done to windows XP with Service Pack 2.  If you have a machine running windows xp and put it on the internet you MUST install SP2.  \n\nhopefully this helps.

You can,but I wouldn't.I would download and install Windows XP Service pack 2,and then go to Windows Update and take all available updates,and then set it to take automatic updates,and keep your Windows XP up to date.You can download Windows XP Service Pack 2 at the site below.

You can't upgrade Windows 2000 to XP Home.  You can upgrade Windows 2000 to XP Pro.  That is probably why you now how two operating system on your machine now.\n\nIf you want to put XP Home on that machine, only, you will have to do a full reformat.

Ive got this problem at the moment - manage to download SP1 but it keeps crashing when i try to download SP2 - I don't know if it's a problem at Microsoft end or at my end, but i do know i got a lot of Trojans that i removed a little while back so I'm going to re-install windows XP again in case when the Trojans were removed it corrupted my windows in some way

Yes, you can download it, without any problems..When I got my service pack 2, I ordered it from microst, on a cd..This was free, I did not even have to pay for postage..That way, I will always have it, in case needed in the future..Also, they encourage you, to pass it around to your friends, and family..But, if you want to download it from there, you should have no problems..Get it here..\nhttp://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx

you got a tough row to hoe trying to get 95 and xp to work together, it is hard enough with 98 and xp. if you look around you might find some sort of software that will hook them up, but tried once or twice and gave it up. I just ugrade the 95 to 98 and get it going
