Thank you for your answer! Sainath.I followed the article 947366: downloaded the standalone package for sp2 and System Update Readiness Tool, also I disabled my antivirus program. However when I tried to install sp2 package, it asked me to install sp1 first. As I know sp1 had already been installed when my colleague set up this computer. If I install sp1 again, will it cause any problem?Best regards,Wong

Hi Wong,If the system already has the sp1 , the setup will proceed to next phase after verifying required files, if the sp1 is missing then it will install .

Thanks! Sainath. I will try to reinstall sp1.
