Service Pack 2

Recommended Posts

Folks - I'm looking for help. I recently changed my operating system to Windows XP Pro on my Toshiba Laptop. Everything was going along nicely until I tried to install Service pack 2. It got part way through the installation and hangs at checking the product key. I verified that the product key is valid so I don't know why the installation hangs at that point. Does anyone have any ideas?

A lot of reading, but I am sure you should find an answer on this site http://winhlp.com/WxSP2.htm

You can always go back to your original XP (without SP2) by doing a repair installtion. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315341 (scroll down to method 2)

After doing this, make sure to scan for viruses, spyware and check windows updates. Make a full backup and give it another go.
