Hi to all.
I'm trying to install sp2, but every time i get an error saying
that i don't have enough disk space, and that sp2 requires an additional
1MB.
This is odd because i have about 9GB free disk space,
in one disk and one partition.
Error code: 80070643.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Sharon.

Sharon;
Among other space requirements, you need "30 MB of free hard disk
space on the first primary system partition", normally C, there is no
workaround.
Do you meet that and the others:
