Service Pack 2 Download and Install

[Guest]

My download of SP2 futzed out on my PC, but now if I try to go in and do it
again, I get an error. Is there someway I can force it to download form the
Update site again? Delete the files it download? (Where ever they may be)

Thanks in advance.

Hi Evan,

If you're facing problems while downloading SP2 via Windows Update site or
through Automatic Updates, you can download the full package from the
following site for offline installation.

Developers:

Further, you can integrate Service Pack 2 with the Windows XP source folder,
in order to create a slipstreamed XP CD.
