I suspect you downloaded the SP2 service pack image, not Windows XP SP2, since Microsoft only offers the service pack for download. You don’t put the service pack disk in; you have to put in the XP disk itself.

The solution very likely is to update your computer with the SP2 disk and all subsequent updates (there are many!), after which you should be able to run the installer.

Do not download and instal SP2, because it’s size is more than 200mb which is not necessary. If you update you computer than it will take only 50 to 60mb. Because only this 50 to 60mb are used. This is waht microsoft says.
