novi Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Greetings all,I was trying to reinstall xp on my computer before april 8th, I did not get the chance. Is it too late to get all the updates up until microsoft pulled support? I had not done a reinstall in years and I just remember the computer running much faster. (can't quite make the jump to a new computer yet )as always any help is greatly appriciated.thanks,Pat Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dan72 Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I would upgrade to at least vista or 7 , Im sure you can find a cheap disk since 8 is out .But if you want to stick with XP you might find a package download for all updates but start with the service packs first I found this program while searching http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/xp_update_extender.html but use this with caution Quote Link to post Share on other sites
