I am working on WinXP Pro. Today I downloaded Service Pack2. Though it
got downloaded successfully, while the installation was going on, there
was an electricity failure due to which the installation got aborted
abruptly (the "cleanup" process was going on at that time i.e. almost
75% of the installation was complete).
Now when I visit http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/sp2/default.mspx,
sometimes the page says that SP2 is already installed but on other
occasions, it says that SP2 isn't installed in my WinXP Pro machine.
This is confusing me - has SP2 really been installed in my machine?
Note that when I right-click "My Computer" on the "Desktop" & click
"Properties", under the "General" tab, it says:
System:
Microsoft Windows XP
Professional
Version 2002
Service Pack 2
Also when I open "Add/Remove Programs" from the "Control Panel", I find
"Windows XP Service Pack 2" listed there. Apart from this, under the
"Tools" menu in IE6, two new menu items (Pop-up Blocker & Manage
Add-ons) also have got added which weren't there when SP2 wasn't
installed in my machine.
Now how do I make sure that SP2 has indeed been installed successfully
in my WinXP Pro machine since the above mentioned web page sometimes
says that SP2 is installed & sometimes it says that SP2 isn't installed
in my machine?
Thanks,
