Guest Capt K Ripendran Posted September 7, 2008 Posted September 7, 2008 I have a Compaq Presario 1155 preloaded with Win XP SP2. I would like to download and install SP3. When I go to Windows Update, after signing in EULA, the download does NOT start. No ERROR msgs appear! What is the reason & a solution? Thanking you Capt K Ripendran
