Hello folks,

as the summary says.

The installer prerequisite log "dd_depcheck_VC_EXP_100.txt" is pretty verbose,
no need for Wine trace log:

--- snip ---
...
[12/08/13,20:06:38] Windows XP x64 Service Pack 2 is required == 
[12/08/13,20:06:38]     This component uses the FileRegVerCheck version check
method. It will compare a given version against the version of a regkey on your
machine.
[12/08/13,20:06:38]     Registry key being interrogated:
HKLM,System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Windows; Value: CSDVersion; Version: 512.
[12/08/13,20:06:38]     Version on user's machine:    256
[12/08/13,20:06:38]     Version to be installed:    512
[12/08/13,20:06:38] Windows XP x64 Service Pack 2 is required == Component to
be installed.
--- snip ---

Setting CSDVersion to 512 in 64-bit prefix allows the installer go further.

Wine uses "Service Pack 3" for 32-bit "Windows XP" setting (=latest).
There is no SP3 for the 64-bit version of Windows XP. XP2 is indeed the latest.

For consistency it would make sense that Wine uses SP2 for 64-bit XP,
indicating highest SP level.
