Hi all,

I've just reinstalled Win Xp on one of my machines.

Unfortunately I am having difficulty d/l SP 2 from microsoft.

Auto update keeps coming up and all links to the d/l page
seem to
keep going back to auto update page ?

any suggestions where I can get a direct d/l from ?

Cheers, Kev

You can download SP2 directly from this site. Ignore the
warning about not downloading if you're only updating one
computer.

Windows XP Service Pack 2 Network Installation Package for IT
Professionals and Developers
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...be-3b8e-4f30-8245-9e368d3cdb5a&displaylang=en

You can also order SP2 on CD here.

Good luck

Kevin, try the link from my website article:
http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org/how_can_i_download_a_full_copy_o.htm

The link is to the network installation package which downloads the full SP2
service pack. This is the liunk i used to download SP2 when i was
slipstreaming SP2 and XP onto one CD.
