I've fixed up and old computer for my friend and have to use Windows XP. That copy only came with Service Pack 2, and that's proving to be a problem. Most programs won't install or run without Service Pack 3. I can't download it from Microsoft since they don't care about XP anymore, so I downloaded it from another source. At first it was giving me an error about not being able to update a checked system with a retail version of Service Pack 3, but I fixed that with a simple guide. The executable runs now, but after a few seconds gives me a "One or more arguments are invalid" error and then a "cannot install" box as well. It doesn't matter what I do, it always does this after 5 seconds or so.
Any solutions to this? Any help definitely appreciated.
