Okay,insert the CD and just go through the 'Readme' file.There you will
find necessary information.

Purely by looking at the file contents of an Xp Pro CD is there a way
to spot if it includes SP1 or SP2?

Does SP2 include everything SP1 does? IE would I need to install SP1
then SP2 or just ignore sp1 and go to sp2?

Thx.. now is there a way to tell which SP this disk is that I have by
looking at the file contents?

It will be printed right on the Genuine Microsoft Windows XP CD itself.

Is Your Copy of Windows XP Genuine?
