office XP and windows service pack

[afd00]

hey guys,

i am about to format and reinsall windows XP professional and i want your advice on one thing: what should be the order of the things i install after the os is up and running??

basically i am curious about office XP and the win XP service pack1. does SP1 work on office to enhance it? if so, should i install office first and SP1 later so that SP1 will find an office installation to enhance???

any other advices concerning other programs that should have priority over others?? any ideas are welcome!!

thanks

Always install the OS service pack first. Next should be your chipset software and Antivirus. After that, take your pick! ;)
