XP Service-Pack #2 * Controll Panel "Display" problems!

[Guest]

I have been trying for some time to download and install the windows-xp
service pack 2 but it will not allow me to download let alone install, all it
says is "failed" and the below error code. I have tried switching off all
known security software of every sort but still no joy. I get the folowing
error message: Error Code: 0x8007F0CC .

Also, although not vitally important but a problem none the less is that I
cannot change my desktop background: The control panel "display" window is
frozen in every way so I cannot use it to alter the background, and the same
applies to any program - styleXP etc - that usually allows background change,
NONE including most worryingly the control panel are useless. PLS help!

PLEASE offer any help or advice.

Thanks in advance...

Jonathan.

Update your antivirus software and run a full system scan. Do the same for
whatever anti-spyware programs you have.
