Answer 1

it`s no way you can download windows xp from internet for free,but if you really want you can do it from torrent but that`s illegal :)  

Answer 2

As you know, SP3 is already out for a while, but you should install

SP2 not SP1 or SP3.  SP1 is not supported by Microsoft anymore and not having sp2 will put your computer at risk. YOu can download it here

It is a large file and depending on your internet speed, can it take up a couple of hours. When you have broadban, it might take 20 minutes
