hi guys. i am using a win xp pro right now and i need to upgrade it to sp 2.
i have a cd for that but wanted to kno if i my data would be lost in this
procedure. wil i need to create a backup for that.
 
Upgrading to SP2 *should* not cause you to lose any data. However,
installing a service pack on a Windows computer is a very big change to
the operating system. *Anything* can go wrong when you install service
packs or do other major changes to the operating system! The
possibility of losing all your data does exist!

By the looks of it, it sounds like you have no backups at all, else, why
would you ask the question? You are playing with fire if you have no
backups for your precious files.
