tried this once but my computer ate the thread before i posted it...
so here's the short of it:
-bought a new macbook
-used bootcamp to install windows xp professional
-didn't have service pack 2 so drivers didn't work
-tried installing sp2 but get the following message:
"Service Pack 2 Setup Error:
There is not enough disk space on CWINDOWS\$NTServicePackUninstall$ to install Service Pack 2. Setup requires a minimum of 4 additional megabytes of free space or if you also want to archive the files for uninstallation, Setup requires 4 addtional megabytes of free space. Free additional space on your hard disk and then try again.
i've looked all over the place and never once seen anyone else with the same problem. all i've seen is warnings that you need to free more space...
BUT I HAVE 9+ GB OF FREE SPACE
am i misunderstanding something? where is the space i need to free, because windows is the only thing on the partition. nothing else.
i tried integrating sp2 into my install cd, but i don't have an original cd so i didn't have the microsoft file thingie you need for it to boot
any help would be GREATLY appreciated
specs: Macbook with 13.3-inch widescreen display, 2.0GHz Intel Core Duo, 1 GB RAM 60GB HD, SuperDrive
