Mac Forum / Country Specific / UK Mac Group / May 2008OT'ish: Anyone managed to get XP SP3 to install?
Am trying to run this in Fusion beta 2 - wondering if the problem is VMware or just Windows. Can I hell get XP SP3 to download and install via Windows Update. There's a long pause, followed by a "Failed to install" message. No further details. Anyone managed it yet?

The weekend before last, I upgraded from SP2 under Fusion before rolling it out on some real Windows boxes. It went smoothly but I had downloaded the installer (as it was going to be put on a few machines) rather than going via Windows/Microsoft Update. Available from <URL:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=5b33b5a8-5e 76-401f-be08-1e1555d4f3d4>. I'd grabbed it before the RMS issue resulted in its delay. That said, the links for the above and the ISO appear to be failing at present so it may be an issue at Microsoft's end.
