Hello ,
Prepare to back-up all data as to transfer it to an external Hard Drive . Data such as : Pictures , Websites , My Documents . The softwares like Media players and Java and your ISP can be down;loaded later . Install your Anti-Virus and Anti Spywarev softwares after you hav updated all of Windows' updates and after your ISP softwares . To Restore your PC > Insert the Operating CD /Shut down PC/Press the power button and immediately start tapping the f10 key until you see the screen that gives options to begin restoring your PC. Select [RAW] . No Partition . When asking for advice , enter your PC name and brand . Going by your post reguarding the SP2 fail to install may only because your Anti-Virus is stopping the install . Cabinets ? I am not sure what that is .

Are you an administrator of the computer? Do you have enough hard disk space? Are you using a genuine copy of Windows? Is your copy of SP2 uncorrupted?

how much ram do you have in this computer? how much free hard-drive space do you have? ... I have installed literally hundreds of SP2 and not had a problem ... from computers with processors as low as 400Mhz but always with 10+ Gb of had-drive space and at least 256MB ram ... so a little more info may help us help you :)
