sp2 install

[jb]

Hi,

I installed sp2 on several pc's in my office but when I
try to install on one of them, I get this error message:
Download Failed and the error code is 80246005.

I tried several times with the same result. I am
installing the upgrade on a Dell notebook but I was able
to install it on other Dell notebooks.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
jb

Hi

Are you installing SP2 from Windows Updates?


Also, if you have a Dell Inspiron 1150 or 2650, you might get a
slow running system after installing SP2, take a look at this thread
for more on this:
