Installing Vista SP2

I just recently installed Windows Vista (Don't ask me why, I don't
even know what I was thinking), and I installed SP1 without a problem,
now when I go to install SP2 it fails to install, I have tried
everything that I know from just rebooting, to regedit to remove
vKite... I am at a total lose on getting this to install at this
point... Does anyone have any other suggestion for me to try?

Perhaps ask in a VISTA group as opposed to this one which is XP?

And your WinXP problem is...?

CrystalBall© sez...

Free unlimited installation and compatibility support is available for
Windows Vista, but only for Service Pack 2 (SP2). This support, originally
scheduled to end 26 November 2009, has been extended until 26 February 2010.
Availability of chat or e-mail support differs depending on your geographic
location. Some issues may require more advanced support for which there is a
charge. Go to
http://support.microsoft.com/oas/default.aspx?prid=13014&gprid=582034 &
select appropriate category (i.e., Download issue; Installation issue;
Issues after you install a service pack).
