HELP !!! Office XP Service Pack 3 will not install

[FILL COLOR Problem? Problem RESOLVED!]

I've attempted to install Service Pack 3 for Office XP Pro set up ... and it
goes through the motions and says "Installation Unsuccessful" and tells me to
"try again later". What's up with this?????

I'm running WINXP Professional (SP2) and I just reloaded my cmptr. w/ a
Pentium 4 / 3.8Ghz, 2 GB Ram, 400-GB Harddrive....yes, it IS a 400-GB
Harddrive but I partitioned my Harddrive to (2) Drives (200 GB Each) because
I'm using the other 200 GB Harddrive space for my documents and IF my
harddrive ever crashes...I can STILL get my Documents. This also saves me
from putting in a "Back Up" drive. In case anyone wants to know .... my
computer took 1 second to download a 25 MB file! Lightning Fast!

ALSO...I created a 2006 Calendar (in Word) and if anyone wants a copy, send
me your email address and I'll send it to you! (Free of course).

If anyone can CALL me to fix this problem w/ the Service Pack 3 issue, I'd
GREATLY appreciate it!!! (757) 498-1967. If you get my "electronic
secretary", please leave your # so I can call you back!

Have a Great Day everyone!
Respectfully,
Bill

I get the message...installation successful, but when I go to Search for
updates, it continues to come up as not being installed. Outlook is freezing,
and the response is to download this update.....keep going around in circles!

Hmmmmm. Our T3 in this Office takes just a bit longer for 25MB. Can I ask you what type of LAN and or Server you are using?
