btw tell ur engineer to get u a original copy of xp/vista...
 
turn of smart acts of Windows...I m nt advocating piracy but Windows Update,Security Center,Error Reporting etc etc..irritate a lot and also consume vital computer resources..

Buy PC but still I will suggest u to keep automatic update enabled as MS still provides important updates to the non-genuine copies.

Instead of automatic updates, why not use Autopatcher? As mentioned above, turning off automatic updates, error reporting, security center including firewall (if you install another one) and some other services is the best thing to do not only to avoid such problems in future, but also from a security point of view. Also use tweaking utilities like XP Antispy and SafeXP to disable unnecessary options. This thread might be useful (one method): y u want to chane now!! :D

Get Vista. Here in Bangalore the upgrade version costs Rs. 5713(Home Premium) + 4% VAT.
And this can be installed as a clean install without amounting to piracy. Just search the net(zdnet.com).

^^ but for upgrade he must have a Windows Xp hime edition legal copy :D:D:D

and if you dont have that just dont have the express upgrade coz you wont be able to activate it in clean install..

so just dont.. first ry and sort out this problem ,, by either anand k 's method or Buy original home edition and then apply SP2 over it ...
