SP2 via Automatic Update?

[drw]

About a week ago, I received notification through
Automatic Update that my SP2 was ready to install (via
icon in system tray). Unfortunately, I had to be away
from my computer for the past week, and now the automatic
update icon is gone. Even when I go to the Windows Update
and let it check what updates are available for my PC,
SP2 is not listed. Am I still in the queue? Will it come
up in the Automatic Update later? Have I missed my
chance?

Thanks

Hi

I suggest you download the full SP2 installation and use it
to install SP2.

SP2 is available at the Microsoft Download Center
(standalone"network" version, 266 MB):

If you think that download is to large, you can get the same
file on a CD from Microsoft.

The Windows XP SP2 CD order point:
