Follow these steps to find out what service pack is currently installed in your Windows XP system.
1. Click on
Start and then
Control Panel.
2. Click on the
Performance and Maintenance link.
Note: If you're viewing the
Classic View of Control Panel, you won't see this link. Simply double-click on the
System icon and proceed to Step 4.
3. In the
Performance and Maintenance window, click on the
System Control Panel icon at the bottom of the window.
4. When the
System Properties window opens it should default to the
General tab. If not, choose it manually.
5. In the
System: area of the
General tab you'll find the operating system version and the service pack level. See the screen shot below for an idea of what you're looking for.
Note: If you don't have any service pack installed, you won't see "Service Pack 0" or "Service Pack None" - there will be no reference to a service pack at all.
