SP 2

[the staring frogs of Southern Iberia]

Where can I download SP 2. I tried to go to windows update but my validation
failed for some reason. I reloaded the OS Friday night because of all the
BSOD's I kept getting. Everything went well and it's working like it
supposed to but I tried to go to Windows Update since it wiped out all the
updates and get everything up to date. It fails my validation. There's a
copy of SP 2 that can be downloaded but it's 266 MB and says that it's for
system managers if they are installing on a lot of boxes.
I'd like to get it back to where it was prior to the reload but it
seems the only way is to order a CD.

You have to solve the WGA problem first.
Post your issue concerning the WGA Tool in these MS Forums:

Have you tried WGA-Diagnostic Tool (named MGAdiag):

SP2 266 meg download is also for single PCs.

You can download that copy of SP2 to disc and then install it from there.
I've done this on all sorts of computers in my community. TTFN.

Thanks for the suggestions. I didn't see any diagnostic tools after the
failed validation. It just says to contact my support team. Well, that's me
I guess.
