I have successfully installed SP2 and works correctly. In case there is any
serious problem, how can I go back to SP1 until I resolve the issue (keep
the SP2 in my computer). If I do not find any issue in next couple of
weeks, how can I remove the SP2 patch and the backup programe of old system
which did the backup during installation of SP2 in order to save the hard
disk space.

Thanks,

Ray

You can't go back to SP1 and keep SP2 hanging around. Once you go back
to SP1, SP2 must be installed the same way it originally was. Here is a
link on how to remove SP2. (Note going back to SP1 isn't always trouble
free.):
