Any Redist versions of XP SP2 to download?

I downloaded XP SP2 redistribution file, but kept putting it off to do at a later time. No I am ready to upgrade and I must have deleted the file. I can't find it.

To top things off, I can't find any places that have the file anymore. I must have missed the boat on this one.


Does anyone know a website where I can get this again?

There's a link to it in my SP2 guide (link in sig). :)

Thanks a lot! That is what I needed.

It says it is for professionals and developers. Why the extra information to confuse me? That threw me off for a minute. There is home edition, professional and corp. edition. I guess this is an All-In-One upgrade file.

Because you can download the 2 mb "express setup" file which then downloads only the parts needed for sp2 to isntall. Usually around 40mb for sp1 and for sp2 about 90mb.

The redist one can be sintalled more than once and includes all the files needed to install. They say it's for pros and developers because it's meant to be used by them to intstall to say 100 machines all at once.

Yes, the same package is used for all versions.
