Hi!

I think I aready downloaded the SP2, but I chose not to install it right
away since I wanted to back up some files first. Now, I cannot figure out how
to start the installation.
I have an I386 folder in my Windows folder that contains the packed/zipped
SP2 files (I think).
Please, help! Thanks in advance!

What about double klicking on the executable?
As far as i remember, it helps.

Hi!

The thing is, there are several *.exe files, and since I have no idea what
they do, I don't want to try at random. Do you know which one I should double
click?

Danke!

Yep, within your decompressed folderstructure, there is one called 'update'
There you'll find the corresponding update.exe <-- use it.
