I have removed Service Pack 2 and reverted back to Service Pack 1, or so I
thought, I then tried to reinstall Service Pack 2. Now the system starts in
Service Pack 1 (larger icon,etc) and shows a small icon in the bottom
righthand corner of the screen which shows that the system is running Service
Pack 1 and that it is no longer secure and to reinstall Service Pack 2. I
have tried doing this now, twice but I still finish up with the same start
results that the Service Pack 2 update is not listed as a download for my
system just a list of other security updates.
I have looked in my update history when in the Microsoft site and according
to that Service Pack 2 install is complete. However, if I look in the
Add/Remove Programs the Service Pack 2 is not listed.

P.S. - SP2 likely has nothing to do with your larger icons. ;-)
