SP1 wont install for me, because I have bootxp and changed my bootscreen the lazy way, and it says it cant install sp1 because its a different core system kernel or something.. im guessing its because of bootxp, which i uninstalled, but it kept it the same.
AHHHH.
 
Did you try doing a repair from the CD?

Here's a description of bootXP,
BootXP is an easy to use startup logo changer designed for Windows 2000 and XP that uses bitmap files or kernel files as sources.

BootXP shows animated full screen previews of the screens,sp you will see the previews as if you were booting.

BootXP also makes a copy of your kernel and have a safe install/uninstall progress.

It changes the kernal file so a repair may work.
