Can not install SP2

[chris]

At some point my instalation was canceled for SP2. Now
when I go to Windows Update, SP2 is not avaliable to me. I
can look at my update history and it shows that SP2 was
attempted but was canceled. Any idea as to how I can get
Windows Update to go back and retry it?

I am currently @ SP1 - XP Home

Thanks

No, but you can get and install the whole thing (and have it around as
backup.)

Go to Staples and get the free SP2 CD.

You do realize not everyone has a "Staples" anywhere near them, right?
Nor an Office Depot.
Nor an Office Max.

Unfortunately, the Windows XP SP2 CD is not like AOL CDs and found on every
corner. =)

I got the same problem, but I tried again, and it worked.
Reboot the system. Try again.
Your post is 1 day old, so maybe by this hour, you've already
installed SP2.
Good luck.
