SP2 is the most recent service pack for Windows XP. There have been a number of updates since the release of SP2 so you'll want to get those. SP3 has been announced but won't be released until some time next year. -- Tom Porterfield

There are a number of subsequent updates - perhaps between 80 and 100 - that also apply once SP2 is installed. If you have anything other than a high-speed internet connection, it's perhaps better to try to take your laptop to a place where high-speed is available to you for the couple of hours needed for the subsequent updates. Perhaps a friend's home; you can set up the laptop to get updates, then have dinner, watch a movie, while occasionally giving the laptop the clicks it wants to proceed. HTH -pk

Guest Dee Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Re: Most recent service pack? Hi there... In checking my windows XP Pro with all service packs and updates, this is what it is reporting: Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 20040803.231319 Internet Explorer: 7.0.5730.11 Because you have Service Pack 2, just check Windows Update to see if there is anything there for you.

Yes it is. However there are post-sp2 updates that you should also be sure you have. Check at Microsoft Update. -- Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP Windows - Shell/User Please Reply to the Newsgroup
