I've done a clean install of xp pro on an older Dell workstation and it seems very successful. The issue is I want to download sp2 or sp3 and such, but Internet Explorer can't seem to open or find any sites. MSN's browser works sort of. You can search, it finds results, but it can't open the page. Comes up like your not connected to the internet. I'm thinking the browser needs to be updated, but can't until sp2 is installed. Any thoughts? Thanks Steve
