Can't install Servive Pack 3

Just tried to install Office XP Service Pack 3. All OK until I get a window
asking me to insert my F/Page 2002 disc, problem is I have lost it ! Cannot
therefore install the update, any ideas?

Then you need to find it.

Otherwise if it is retail, contact Microsoft:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=326246

If it is OEM contact the seller, Microsoft may not be able to help with OEM.

Need to find it? Funny.....

We are discussing that problem here already for months....when you had
WindowsXP on your computer when you bought it, you just don't have anything
to find.

It is not asking for the WINDOWS XP cd. It is asking for the OFFICE XP cd.
OFFICE XP is Microsoft Office - a group of applications like Word, Excel,
PowerPoint, etc. Even if your computer came with Microsoft OFFICE
pre-installed, you should have gotten a CD and registration key with it. If
you didn't, you have to take that up with whoever you bought the PC from. I
have copies all over the place from Dell and HP, they came with every PC we
ever bought - even though the software was already installed.

Windows XP and Office XP are two completely different things.
