I am trying to write a batch file that will call up "hklm\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\csdversion" and determine if Service Pack 2 is installed. If SP2 isn't installed, have it install it for me. Any help would be awesome thank you.

@ECHO OFF

FOR /F "tokens=2* delims= " %%A IN ('REG QUERY "HKLM\software\Microsoft\windows nt\currentversion" /v csdversion') DO SET spver=%%B

ECHO Service Pack Version = %spver%

if not "%spver%" == "Service Pack 2" (

echo install service pack 2

rem **insert path and sp2 location here**

)

if "%spver%" == "Service Pack 2" (

echo Service Pack 2 is installed

)

pause

also.. why not slipstream it into your cd? waste of space 2 do it the other way

Thanks for the insanely quick response. Also, I don't slipstream because I'm not reinstalling windows on every new computer that I work on, just updating. Thank you.
