This is the network install file. Also it is only available in english at this time. Here is a link to download it from my website as well:

I hope this helps. Good luck to everyone. SP2 is awesome.

 

Order Your Free WinXP SP2 CD

Microsoft is going the extra mile to make sure everyone gets SP2 installed.

If your not on broadband and are willing to wait [though picking up a magazine with it on the cover is probably faster] you can order a free WindowsXP service pack 2 CD-ROM straight from MS at this link.

Note: Share This CD with a Friend
After you have installed Service Pack 2, Microsoft encourages you to give this CD to a friend or family member using Windows XP.



They get it out to you fast

 

Both from my own experience and what I've seen here and elsewhere, it looks like the CD typically arrives within a week to 10 days, despite the 4 to 6 weeks MS is quoting. So don't worry about getting it via magazine cover, unless of course it's a mag you'd get anyway.

 

Don't forget you can just as easily get a FREE sp2 cd at your local CompUSA, Best Buy, or Staples store. and you don't have to worry about getting a cracked cd thru the mail. Other computer stores may carry it as well.

 

Oh, and you don't have to buy anything either to get the free cd. Just ask if you don't see it displayed on the shelf in any of the above listed stores.
