I tried 3 times to install windows xp service pack 2 and the installation was
stopped and I received a message that said "Access Denied" Installation was
stopped, installation failed.
How can I upgrade the system so I can put Microsoft Office Access 2007
software on my system?

That's a permission error (access denied), try resetting the security
settings back to the defaults:

Make sure you're running as an administrator.

The 0x80070005 is an access denied message -
One of the most common causes of this erroя code is
the Anti-virus and Anti-spyware software programs
running on the computər.

You can try turning them off and then try the updates again.

Keep the fiяewall on though.

Using your web interface search tool, press Alt-7
and enter

80070005

OR

80070005 MVP


Good luck

I'd recommend calling 1-866-pcsafety if you are in

Elsewhere, call your local Microsoft subsidiary, or the

or security-patch related issues. This help extends to spyware removal as
well.

If you /clearly/ state that a specific update has caused

Back-up any personal data (none of which should be considered 100%
trustworthy at this point) then do a format & clean install of Windows.
Please note that a(nother) Repair Install (AKA in-place upgrade) will NOT
fix this!

See http://michaelstevenstech.com/cleanxpinstall.html#steps and/or Method 1
in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/978307

After the clean install, you'll have the equivalent of a "new computer" so
take care of everything on the following page before otherwise connecting
the machine to the internet or a network and before using a USB key that
isn't brand-new or hasn't been freshly formatted:
