SP1 & 2, or just SP2?

[RJ]

Can someone tell me if SP2 contain all the upgrades of SP1? Or do I need to
install both Service Packs on a freshly formatted disk drive.

Thanks
Ron

Hi RTon

You will only need to install SP2 after XP, as SP2 is cumulative and
contains all the previous Updates.

It's cumulative. Therefore it comprises all updates from the WinXP release through SPI and
upto SP2.

SP2 is all you need. It contains all the fixes from SP1 and post hot
fixes.
