I have reformatted my computer (used slate, then Fdisk, then format, so it's totally blank) and I am about to re-install XP Pro. The copy of XP Pro that I have is pretty old (probably was burned about a year ago at least) but it should work fine.

The PC is a Dell dimension of some sort, with a P-3 933 processor and I believe 384 MB of memory, in case you're curious

My question is this. I have service pack 1A burned on CD. But I don't have SP1 anywhere. I think you can install SP1a without first installing SP1, but I'm not 100% sure. I'm going to search on google as well, but I was wondering if anyone here knew for sure.

Thanks in advance!!
