do you have a hacked version of xp?

i am having the same error. Xp unpacks it files. When the install starts it just quits and says "Service Pack 1 Setup Error : Service Pack Setup Cancelled".

This is what it said in the log file.

InstallFromFunction call in inf section "BuildType.DirId" failed.

any ideas what would be causing the error.

as far as I know this only works on the pro edition, if can't get this to work and you need the sp1, try downloading the pro corperate edition from kazaa but keep cd key changer program, this will allow you to upgrade to sp1

Does SP1 do anything specific to help in gaming?

Any one know the benefits of gettting SP1?

My system seems fine with no problems that I notice.

if it ain't broke, don't fix it. But there are a few bugs that'll you need to fix via update if you don't use sp1...
