If you are having download problems, you can have MS just mail you the CD.

Do you have Deamon Tools or Alcohol 120% installed? If you do,
uninstall them first, then reboot, then try updating to SP2. You can
also try downloading the network version if Windows Update still fails,
though this file is considerably larger ;)
