Every time I try installing SP2, it stop about 33% of the way during the
installation when it says "backing up registry". Any ideas??

When SP2 back ups the registry it take about 15-20 mins. How long did you
wait? The whole SP2 update takes over 30 mins. It actually takes longer to
install the package then it does to download it.
