[Kurious]

Am planning on doing format and clean install.
Have always installed Windows Critical Updates
first before installing SP2. Have SP2 disk and
wondering if ok to install SP2 before Critical Updates.

Yup. Install SP2 and then do the updates. Some of the updates you may be
doing might have already been included if you'd installed SP2 first.
Additionally the security benefits of SP2 make it a wise choice to install
that first.
