You are probably correct as I can't remember the path very well.
Anyway I may try this after I have the new system up and running for some time.
I was able to download all the programs I needed to my flash drive and install
them without the internet.
This morning I got the internet running ok but have trouble with the AT&T 7550
modem and port forwarding for viewing security cameras using the internet. I'll
sort that out tomorrow. I get a little weary after about 6 to 8 hours of this
stuff.
I still have SP3 to find a download. I would think that the M$ site would be
best as I think they look at your system and go from there.
