Ive recently upgraded from Windows XP Home With SP1 To
Windows XP Professional Without SP1 but now when i try
and install SP1a it just gets a service pack 1 cannot
install error, anyone shed any light on this either can
you send me a e-mail or reply to my post

thanks hope some one has any idea how to fix this
 
Do not attempt to install SP1a if you have SP1 installed.
The only difference is the Microsoft Virtual Machine for
Java has been removed from SP1a.
