I will be installing a new copy of Windows XP 64-bit in a few days. The package says it has SP2. I thought I would then install SP3,then use Windows Update. Am I correct that the updates that are put out periodically are the same for 64-bit as for the 32-bit versions? Or are there different updates for the 64-bit version? Thanks Ken K |
