I need to find Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition, service pack-1 on CD ...?

Question

I have a HP pavilian XT963 computer that I recently had to upload the operating system, OS, and I lost data and the original service packs.  I have tried to download SP-1 from off the Internet but keep getting a drop down that says: the service provider web site isn't responding.  I have tried a number of different sources but get the same results.  I need to get a CD with XP SP-1 on it that I can use locally.  Can anyone point me in the right direction for obtaining this CD?

Additional note: I have XP SP-3 on CD, but I can't use it until I have SP-1 installed on my computer.

Thanks

Have you tried downloading it from Microsoft?  Download it and save it to you desktop, then run it.

Now that's weird. SP3 is suppose to work even without SP1. I reformatted my PC using SP3. SP3 is suppose to contain SP1 and SP2. Since SP3 is the upgrade version and latest vversion of XP.
If your just going to reformat, you should not require SP1. What are you trying to do by the way.
