After a recent Windows automatic update I received a message asking me to
insert the service pack 3 cd as some system files had been replaced with
unrecognized versions and may cause system instability. I don't have a CD
all files were downloaded from the web. How can I fix this problem?

Open a free support incident.

Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for
Windows XP, but only for Service Pack 3 (SP3), until 14 Apr-09.
