Start it up
You install and deploy SP2 the same way the first service pack was installed; the only difference is the filename: W2kwp2.exe. Note that Microsoft slipstreamed SP1 into SP2, so if you haven't done so already, you don't have to install SP1 before installing SP2. If you did install SP1, there's no need to uninstall it before installing SP2.

Included with SP2 is Update.msi, which lets you deploy SP2 using group policy. This makes SP2 far easier to deploy than any previous Windows 2000 or NT service packs. And because software installed via a group policy has elevated privileges, deploying SP2 to locked-down desktops is much easier. Incidentally, you must assign SP2 to computers; you can't assign or publish it on a per-user basis.
