XP SP2

[Guest]

I am installing XP service pack 2 onto a laptop on my domain, i am using a
username that is a member of domain admins and an administrator for the local
machine but it will not install, it says "you do not have permission to
update Windows XP, please contact your system administrator".
It will install when logged on as administrator but i am trying not to use
this account for support staff.

Hi Garry,

If you scroll down past all the advertising, you will then see the remainder
of that thread.
