Windows XP

This is the newest home/office operating system from Microsoft. Most of these guides relate to using Windows XP with SP1 installed and were written prior to the release of SP2. I am in the process of installing SP2 on a few machines and will be adding new SP2 guides as and when. For previous versions of Windows check these pages.
