TRy updateing straight to sp2 via window automatic updates or www.windowsupdate.com. if you still want to install sp1 try ctrl + alt + Delete and see if you can end the process. or unistall the atapi software and reinstall it after. hope this helps Dave :good:

SP1 does not have the blaster patch, it is part of the update roll up package which can only be installed after you have SP1...SP2 covers all that + a few dozen other patches....But SP2 can be a real issue for you and some of your software.
