Morning muggers Its been awhile and I hope everyone are well
I have a dilemma that is now quite urgent regarding running new GIS software on parallels (updated to version 8) which has XP. The software is large (ArcGIS) and system requirements say anything from XP professional home edition with service pack 3, and up wards is required for it to run. I have tried installing it but an error appears saying a service pack is required? I have XP, but Im not sure if it is Professional and if it has the SP3? I have tried looking online and with Microsoft and only found SP3 for network and developers, so am not sure if this is what I need? My only other avenue it seems is to obtain a new version of windows, probably Windows 7, or buy a PC laptop, as I will need everything up and running by tomorrow!! I would appreciate any advice from someone who may be familiar with this situation? Many thanks and best regards Chris PS Im using a macbook with OS 10 6.8 at 2.2ghz and 8gb of ram. These specs are within the limits required for the GIS. Christopher L.K.
