Can't Upgrade from a previous ver. of SP2

[Guest]

Hi ,

XP SP2 won’t install because I have a previous ( beta ) version of the
service pack installed - ( Service Pack 2 , v.1204 ) .

So the SP2 setup asks me to remove the beta , but I can’t do it - no entry
in add/remove programs and no service pack uninstallation directory in
%systemroot% are available.


Do u know any tricky way to upgrade this beta of the SP2 ???

I take it you checked the "Show Updates" box at the top of the Add/Remove
Programs Window?

Are you kidding ?? No such checkbox is present in Add/Remove Programs,
only "Sort By" Drop-Down Menu ...

There is a checkbox present on my computer, maybe there's something wrong
with yours.........
