Windows XP Home iso? (With SP1/2/3 if possible)

[HugaTheFox]

I have a spare old PC, and it runs Windows 2000 currently. I had Windows XP Home 2 yrs ago because thats what it came with. This PC is several years old (about 12) and its an HP Pavilion a1102n, stock. (Funny it has an x86_64 chip). I uninstalled XP when I tried Windows 7 Pro x32 (bad choice) so recently went and installed Lubuntu. Last weekend I installed Windows 2000, so I can play GTA: SA. But to run emulators and GTA SA Mods, it looks like I need XP. So is there a way to get it legitimately and safely?

Find a disc and copy it, or google a bit, you will find it as well.
They're definitely easy to find.

I'm not exactly sure if its safe to link but its literally available on Microsoft's website for free here
Sorry if it isn't allowed either way.

that's just the service pack... to upgrade a current installed xp....

either way, if it comes from the company itself as free, it's allowed...
what is forbidden in gbatemp is warez.

I just have this PC lying around. It has GTA SA already installed and I mind as well to put it to good use. I do have a modern PC, but its my moms.

If you know the trusted link share with me as well, MS also stop providing support for window xp

We should update to window 10. I got my window 10 copy from pckey callout.

Doesn't GTA SA have a gold rating with WINE? I played and beat the entire game on Arch years ago. The only issue I had was that the installer installed a non working version of xinput.dll, so I had to find a working one.

It does but sometimes it's kinda hard to install it. It works just fine afterwards though.
But if ya want real retro feel, Windows XP is your stay. The best OS.

The XP pro disc will not work with a home coa. The best thing to do if you want to stay above boards is to call a local PC repair place, and just tell them. "I want to reinstall my XP home. The computer has the CoA, but not the disc. Can you help?"If they want more than $5 for their time, call elsewhere. Shouldn't be too hard.

Um, I also have a key... [No, I'm not distributing warez, just saying] If OP wants it then he should hit me up on Discord

If you want to give him a legit key with disc, then there ya go.

Except it's no longer supported, which is problematic.

Yeah. I would still use it if it had support. Hm, I wonder if community makes patches for WinXP.

I think there is a community made SP4, I still regularly use XP on my old laptop I still have.
