Here is the link to have them scan your system and install the necessary components for the windows installer. Simply click 'Install this SDK' and away you go. It's a large download if you want the full http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkup
date/ If you simply want to try installing the installer then go here and download the .exe you want. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=4B6140F9-2D36-4977-8FA1-6F8A0F5DCA8F and to answer your question. XP is based
on the NT 4.0 Architecture so that's the one you want. I personally went with the SDK to get the full updated package as well as all support and cab files etc. I know it's rather a lot but in my belief it's better to overdo some things to get stability. Do
ing this depends on how much space you have. I have 40Gig and have still only used 20 so far. I'm a stand alone home user with the odd game or two and no major file apps. I've had XP HE for over 2-1\2 yrs and haven't had a crash or lockup in 2 yrs. But the
n I tweaked the heck out of the registry. Good luck.
