Download SP1a to CD?

[PVR]

My daughter has WinXP (pre SP1) on a machine with a dial-up modem. My modem
is cable. Is it possible to D/L SP1a to my PC followed by burning to a CD?
She could then install SP1a from the CD.

Is there a MS site for this?

Thanks,

Peter

Create a new folder on your desktop and name it "SP1 Download. Download =
SP1 to
this folder, then record the SP1 file to a CD.

Hi

You will find SP1a here (a 134 MB download, same file for Pro and Home)
under Network Installation:
