I recently had to re-format my hard drive and am trying to install xp sp2.. every time i try to install from the windows update website it keeps saying the following was not able to be downloaded.

Does anyone know why this could be happening and if so how to fix it??

Howdy and welcome to G2G:

Did you use an original, unused version of XP for your install or was the cd one you or someone else made for you??
