why Movie maker 2.0 is still installed after installing SP 2...

Hey all-

I have been to and read the Movie Maker 2.1 page and understand that by
installing SP 2 I am getting Movie Maker 2.1. However after ordering the cd
for SP 2 and installing it, I am still running Movie Maker 2.0.

Previously before formatting the machine, I downloaded and installed SP2
from Windows Update and did get Movie Maker 2.1. Is there a difference
between the Windows Update download of SP 2 and the CD of SP 2? If so, how
can I get the Movie Maker 2.1 back on the Machine? Will installing SP 2 again
cause any duplication of Register Keys and will it give me Movie Maker 2.1
without corrupting the initial installation?

==================================
Maybe the following article will offer some ideas:

What can I do if I upgrade to Windows
XP SP2 and Windows Movie Maker 2.1
is not installed successfully?

John-

Did it all and it works great! Currently have Movie Maker 2.1 now
installed on the machine. Many Thanks! Now I can feel rested knowing I have
the latest gear and patches installed on this machine.
