SP3 Fails to install

tried to install XP SP3 last night,

after jumping through hoops it indicated it had failed to install.

System information says I have SP2

Windows update says I should install SP3 but it's "O" Bytes in size

1 how do I check the error log on SP3 install, and go on from
there ?

2 ?

Thanks

I couldn't download from WU, but I did get it from here:

http://www.soft32.com/download_123572.html

Well, I put my XP through a series of tests:

Notepad - OK
3 types Browsers - OK
AOL - OK
Folding At Home - OK
MS Word - OK
Performance test 6.1 - OK
CPU & memory tests - OK

Probably something broken in there, but will wait a few months to try
it again

Nice day outside, will take a walk . .

That is NOT the final SP3.

Get the latest directly from Microsoft.

It is also available as a CD ISO image, in addition to the automatic
updates. Using the CD image will help eliminate some problems that might
occur during the automatic update process.

A few follow-up notes:

1. The ISO image is 544 Meg. It downloaded for me in about 13 minutes on a
cable modem.

2. To get the image onto a CD, do NOT copy&paste or drag&drop or similar.
Use software that supports burn-from-image. Both Nero and Easy CD Creator
can do this.

3. Before installing, run CHKDSK /F on C: and reboot the PC. Wait until
all disk activity has stopped, possibly as much as a minute after you see
the XP logo. Turn off all user programs, turn off antivirus, turn off
GOBACK (if you have it). Be sure that you have at least 1 Gig of free space
on C:; you won't need all of that, but better to have some extra room than
not enough.

4. Install SP3. Reboot. Then, run XP update to get post-SP3 patches.

5. Rerun CHKDSK /F on C: and reboot.

6. Run defrag.

7. Share the SP3 CD with friends. That will save them from having to
download and burn it. After all, it is offered free to anyone who wants it.

Why do you need to upgrade to XP3?
