[Question] - Did Microsoft ever RTM XP at the SP 0 level?

[newsposter]

Yup, I'm looking for a Microsoft-mfgd XP SP0 (that's SP Zero, no patches, etc, etc) CD for an experiment at work.

Did MS ever actually RTM XP at SP0 or was everything SP1??

thanks!

An original Windows XP retail disc would be at SP0 (it didn't have a service pack when it was released...), but you'll be hard-pressed to find any media that isn't already at SP1 or (more likely) SP2 levels.

You may be able to purchase a set online if you specify that you want RTM media that doesn't include a SP, and see what vendors say they have in stock. I've done that before with some success .

of course exist an exception from this rule provided by

Windows XP 64-bit edition

IS SP1 at first RTM . because is a (2k3+SP1) kernel .

Very true.

Besides an MSDN or an illegal torrent I dont know where else to get an XP without an SP.
