    So I installed the XP mode on my Win7 ultimate 32bit laptop and was having some issues. Mainly does not seem to recognize printers that are attached to the computer. Anyway, that's not my question. During this time, I notice that the update icon. I check it and it seems that XP wants to install SP3.

    So my question is, what do I do? Do I install SP3 in XP mode? It seems a little weird.

    Thanks for any advice,
    Bertman
