ROMANTICGUY50 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 I don't know why anyone would want to downgrade to SP2 since there is no support for it nor any updates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davmil Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 As I recall, If you 'upgraded' the machine from SP2 -> SP3 (as opposed to installed from a SP3 disk), there should be an undo left behind by the update and all the old files copied to a folder underneath \windows\system32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it may be restricted with the system Admin then or there may present some authoring in the BIOS disabling the permission to format..get sure of that.. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
