Assuming you mean "Windows XP Service Pack 3" and nothing else - it is highly unlikely, but not outside the realm of possibility. Maybe a rollup - like they did for Windows 2000. In any case - two operating systems that were meant to replace Windows XP have been released. You can use something like "Windows Update Downloader" to download all of the updates for Windows XP and store those on a DVD and install them as needed or integrate them into installation media if you need to. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
