    Late to the party again. I just spent a few hours trying to remove the screen bezel on my Sager, the hinge has failed (OUCH)

    You installed Windows 8.1 Update 1, that's why.

    XP 32-bit, one update, pretty small. I think it was for .NET something-or-other? Two updates and approaching 10 MB if you count the MSE update. Guess it's a good sign that most of the Windows 7/8 updates don't affect XP this time?

    JOSEA, as far as I can tell at the low res, Tinderbox's avatar is the XP SP2/SP3 boot screen. Good luck with the hinge, it's a bummer when they go out.

    Uhmm, no, that would be because Windows XP support has ended. No more updates for XP.
