I am running Win 2000. Do I need to install the latest service pack before
running FP 2003? That's the impression I get from reading Microsoft's info
on FP 2003. (I don't have any installed now.) Thanks

Yes, you must have SP3 or higher installed.

Yes. Just start IE, choose Windows Update from the Tools
menu, and let it install whatever it finds. This includes:

o Critical Updates and Service Packs
o Windows 2000
o Driver Updates

If you haven't done this for a while, you might run into
some "Exclusive Install" items. This means you'll need to
install that item only, and then reboot. Keep trying to
install everything until nothing is left.

In general, this process has been very smooth and trouble-
free. Once you get up to date, your system will be more
secure and you'll probably find that it runs better.

Thanks for the replies, especially the encouragement from Jim. My system has
been runing smoothly, so I have been a little afraid to start changing
things, but I updated it, and everything is still smooth.
