Xref: kermit microsoft.public.windowsxp.help_and_support:515577
Can the SP2 Preview be converted to the final SP2 version when it is released? Or, do you have to start over again?

SP2 Preview
When the final version of SP2 is released, it will not install over
a beta version of SP2. You'll have to uninstall SP2-RC1 as a prerequisite to installing the final version of SP2. If you experience difficulty uninstalling SP2-RC1, then a "Clean Install" of Windows XP will be required, although a "Repair Install" may be a viable alternative. -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows XP - Shell/User Be Smart!
