Changing windows key on SP1

[bigdawgfoxx]

Ok..my friend just reformated his computer and has SP1 on it. When we go to windows update, He cannot get SP2 because his key isnt good. So how can i change his SP1 key? Is there a SP1 keygen anywhere that would give me a good key to where I could get SP2? Or should I just download SP2 from somewhere else?

Also, the CD I use to install Windows only has sp1. Is there an easy way to copy over SP2 to the cd files and burn a new one?

You can download SP2 here...

It's meant for network installation by IT pros on a number of PCs but does work on stand alone PCs.

u can use the magical jelly bean keyfinder/changer. however, you need a good key to replace it with. http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml

Before pressing 'Custom' or 'Express' buttons paste this text to the address bar and press enter:

javascript:void(window.g_sDisableWGACheck='all')

Can you not just make a slipstreamed cd w/sp2 still ? That is so easy to do by the way.
