    Unable to Install XP SP2, Don't Have Permission

    I was trying to install Service Pack 2 on an older PC running Windows XP and it won't let me.

    I get the message "You do not have permission to update Windows XP. See your computer administrator."

    But I am on the Administrator account, and according to the Users applet in the control panel, it has all the administrator privileges.

    Are there some registry hacks or other workarounds for this?
