Cannot install SP2

While attempting to install SP2 I receive the message components are missing. I understand based on my searches that i need to reinstall Vista. I only have an ISO download and was wondering could I do a repair install with the ISO or do I have to use original media? If I reinstall I will loose Office 2007 which is why I'm asking.

Have you tried the full download? This is for Vista 32-bit which is what you have on your system information section. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=16468

Hi copiman:

Further to townsbg's comments, note that the Details section of that download page states:

"Service Pack 1 is a prerequisite for installing Service Pack 2. Please make sure that your system is running Service Pack 1 before you install Service Pack 2."

Have you already installed SP1, and if so did it install successfully?
