You should be able to. SP2 was designed to upgrade SP1.
1. Before starting update your anti-virus program and do a complete scan. Also update and run an anti- spy-ware/malware program to insure your computer is free of viruses and malware.
2. Then do a restart on the computer and use alt-ctrl-delete to open Task Manager and stop any applications that is running.
3. Then try installing SP2.
NOTE: Your copy of Windows MUST be legitimate or SP2 will not run.

What are the specs of your machine? Also you must have a legit copy of xp to get the SP 2 to install.
