    I kept this which I found on a site. Worked for me

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Vista SP2 has changed the Vsp1cln.exe tool to Compcln.exe, which was
    integrated into SP1, but it is no longer a part of the SP2. However,
    the basic functionality has been successfully preserved.

    SP2 also includes a Service Pack Clean-up tool (Compcln.exe), which
    helps restore the hard disk space by permanently deleting the previous
    versions of the files (RTM and SP1) that are being serviced by SP2.

    How to-
    Open Command Prompt as Administrator (when UAC is enabled) and click on
    Continue to jump ahead.
    Execute the command Compcln.exe
    It prompts to make SP2 permanent on your computer. Press "Y" to confirm!

    I installed SP2 yesterday without a hitch and no problems so far.
    Would you advise running this command or should I leave it for a month
    or so to settle down?
