My comp. specs. are: RAM=192mb; Processor=Intel P3;
Processor Speed=450mhz;Computer=Compaq Desktop EP/SB
Series.
Question 1: Do I have enough memory to download the SP2
for WinXP Home?
Question 2: I've been reading about a lot of problems
with this SP2; is it as problematic as it looks?

downloading sp2 has nothing to do with memory...

you will need about 600 megs of freespace on your HD
to download and setup sp2

i;ve installed it on 5 machines now with no problems at all...
if you have a problem it can be uninstalled..
or a repair installation performed
