When I follow the directions to have Windows
automatically check for the SP2 update, it comes back
indicating that no updates are available.
I know my PC meets the min reqs by miles.

Hi

I suggest you download the full SP2 installation and use it to
install SP2.

SP2 is available at the Microsoft Download Center
(standalone "network" version, 266 MB):

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...5-9e368d3cdb5a


If you think that download is to large, you can get the same
file on a CD from Microsoft.

The Windows XP SP2 CD order point:
