During SP2 installation, I get an error message saying "Access Denied",
followed by "Service Pack 2 installation did not complete". Anyone know why
this is, and how to work around it?

Background info:
I had a working system with SP2 installed. Then following a hardware failure
(DIMM failed), I reinstalled windows XP as a repair installation from the
original CD (pre-SP2). Then automatic updates downloaded SP2 and attempted
to install it, but failed as described above.

After much persistence, I have finally achieved success. So thank-you for
your pointer to the KB article id 873148. In fact, it took me eleven
attempts before the installation finally succeeded. Each cycle of
installation and restore following a failure took about an hour, so this was
about an eleven hour operation. Along the way, these are the registry keys I
had to set permissions on:

vnd.ms.radio
ADCCtl.ADCCtl.1
IMsiServer
.msi

.hta
.ivf
HCP
ADOX.Catalog
ADOX.Column
.dsn
Anyone had to do this more than eleven times?
