     Just a quick advice to remove the beta updates before removing the RC2
    version of sp2. Also uninstall all the softwares you have installed after
    RC2.

    Cheers

    If you're using a Beta version of Windows update, then you'll get other beta
    updates.

    If you want to download WinXP SP2, go to
