Service pack 2 hangs at backup registry

I cannot load service pack 2 update. I works until it gets to backup registry
then freezes with no error message. I also tried to reinstall windows xp from
a disc i purchased last year but i get a message saying NVIDIA drive not
compatable with windows. How can this be if computer already has xp(purchased
computer with software installed).Have tried to download sp3 with no luck.

Take a look here.

A Microsoft web site dedicated to Service Pack 2:

Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) Support Center

<http://support.microsoft.com/?pr=windowsxpsp2>


Good to read,

Windows XP Service Pack 2 Problem Solver

Good luck
