    Tonight I tried to install skype on a Windows XP laptop that is now just over 10 years old. It failed with an error message that on investigation seems to have come up because the laptop is running XP at SP2, and by the look of it needs SP3....

    What's the easiest way to get SP3 onto that old laptop? The original paperwork and disk are missing, and I'm not sure how to do this as painlessly as possible?

    Any suggestions welcome!

    Thank you.
