Cannot re-install SP2

I removed SP2 to do a repair update and now I can't get SP2 to install. When
I click on 'failed' in the installation history there is a reference to Error
80246005.
Searches for that error fail to find anything.
Can you help me?
I feel naked without SP2.

Get SP-2 on CD, #1 on this link:

Hi Dick,

You could try the remedy that worked for the gentleman in this thread:
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/...4ddecb1e2564e2

or it seems that stopping and then starting the Automatic Updates service
(Start>Run and key in net stop wuauserv and then click on OK, when the
service has stopped, Start>Run and key in net start wuauserv and then click
on OK) has worked for a few who were receiving that error message.
