With an absence of fanfare, but otherwise on schedule, Microsoft opened up its download page for Service Pack 2 of Windows Server 2003, both 32-bit and 64-bit editions. Perhaps most importantly, enterprises won't have to wait until Longhorn to be able to utilize Windows Deployment Services, the company's new image-based system for pre-composed, remote Windows installations.

i just clieked ok to the error, and the installation proceeded as normal, after the reboot it was SP2, but i did note the following:-
windows live messenger started an MSI as soon as i logged in, which stated that it was 'repairing itself', so I guess the two could have been related.
on another note, now RIS doesnt work at all, however I cannot identify yet if that is because I changed IP address of one of the network cards on the server (the internet facing one, not the RIS service nic) and there a re 1001 DNS errors as a result. I'll play around with the server tonight and see can I fix it.
cheers

corrupt profile possibly?
I'd create a new administrator profile and try installing the update again.
Common MS issue it seems, profile corruption that is.
