If you copy from CD, your copied files can be read-only. Did you check that?

it need admin privilages, try disabling Anti virus application & 3rd party firewalls , and try again.

Have you tried to slipstream the Service Pack into Windows XP x64 from within a running Windows XP (32bit)?

That wouldn't work. You will only be able to integrate a Service Pack into a 64bit Windows OS while running a 64bit OS.
