SP2 freezes during registry backup

01-31-2005

Several times I have attempted to update to SP2 using the Microsoft
auto-update process. Each time the update freezes when it reaches "backing
up registry". I am running Windows XP Home addition on a Dell Dimension
4300. Anyone know what is wrong.
Otherwise the computer is running fine.

So, order the CD and try upgrading using it:
