Can't Install Service Pack 2 on Server 2003 Standard - Window Disappears
Been trying to install SP2 on Server 2003 Standard. Currently, SP1 is installed. I have tried installing from Windows update AND downloaded the full install and tried running it from there. Both ways we come up with the same problem. Also tried installing in safe mode, same problem.
The window that shows you the status will come up. It will go as far is backing up the files and the registry. Then the window simply disappears. Help!
