SP4 Setup Error

I'm having problems installing SP4 on a Win2K PC.
It stops during the installation with the following error;

Service pack 4 Setup Error.
Select "OK" to undo the changes that have been made, or
select "Cancel" to quit. If you select "Cancel", your
system will be left in a partially updated state and may
not work correctly.

I then select OK and it starts removing it.

If anyone knows a solution to this, it would be very much
appreciated.

Regards
Mike

You should select OK, otherwise you will get many errors if you choose
Cancel. When you select OK it will remove some files that have not been
downloaded correctly and after that, it will then start to download the
files correctly. Even if it takes longer, it is worth letting the program to
start over.
Even if it sounds silly, when you start downloading a program from Microsoft
(and a few others), it is a good practice that you scroll over the EULA
conditions, otherwise Microsoft will not enable a clean downloading and I
think it is probably what it happened to you. It happened to me many times
until I got the trick. Scroll your cursor throughout the page from beginning
to end, to ensure MS already acknowledges that you read the whole thing,
therefore it will be simpler for it to sue you in case it thinks you
infringed some rule. GOOD LUCK.
