Unable to install service pack 1 in windows xp

[RamBarose]

I have my laptop with the Product Recovery CD with XP Home reloaded. Now when I want to install SP1, the installation always hangs at "space for uninstallation is established" on. And after that when I try to install the service pack 3 so at that time I also get lots of issue, Now I am unable to install sp1 and sp3.I've already tried a manual designed by Microsoft to disable Windows, install and activate Windows again, is not it. Someone had the problem or even knows someone like you can pull this off?

Do you have an unused license key, or indeed any, or if yours is still on a computer used? I do not believe that Microsoft with XP yet as accurately examined but for me it was the problem, because I've used the product key number from another computer with me (Windows to install itself was not a problem ...) otherwise I do not even further. So just give me all these information to fix this.

First thing in this that It meets all system requirements, otherwise it does not work. Installation point to speak any more and it gets stuck, but I have now abandoned. In the next time I'll have a home of an OEM xp cd and do not put a recovery, perhaps, to do what in order to fix this is that first you have to check your system and match it with the minimum requirement which need to run windows xp sp1.

why is it calculates that space for removal, which is with me since released and not used. But if it were already on it, could ever install sp2 as a logical conclusion, but it had said that this is not going well. Even a test for the solution for instance, installs the product key. From sp 2 to go should not, try this times during the install the connection. Officially yes win xp allegedly not supplied with updates and it could be that the server has been offline for the keys. In any case when I closed the install of sp3 on xp home with sp 2 is always perfect, but I was not connected to inet.

The key is still in the laptop of my father in use. But another xp home license, we have in the house at about 5 PCs in use is, too, and can all service packs installed. By the way exceptionally both xp microsoft-purchased licenses honest in I.e. with a crack the key 100pro has to do nothing. So first you do this I am sure it will do something in order to fix your issue.
