seems like after my last security update, I cant install
programs on my XP. I wasn't able to open two installed
programs - Adobe Photoshop Business, and SigmaPlot. When
trying to reinstall (thinking a driver may be dropped),
they wont install.

Also XP is SLOW!!!!

What gives?
 
Your posting is a little vague

Did you try to 'uninstall' before you tried to reinstall

Apart from Microsoft I have not found any products with a 'repair' function in their installation routine. Best to go to Add Remove Programs and remove the offending applications, then restart the system. Don't forget to restart

Check out the sytem performance, try cleandisk to get rid of excess baggage, use defrag to get the HDD back into shape

If performance is still down, make sure you are virus free

After all this, then reinstall your applications.
