Click Install to begin the installation process. Your computer will automatically restart after the installation process initializes.

Your computer will then begin installing the service pack, in up to three stages. During the installation, you'll see the current stage of the installation and the percent completion for that stage. This process can take 30 minutes to an hour to complete. Do not turn off your computer. Prior to the final typically the third stage, your computer will restart again. As a result, the start up process may be slower than usual. Be patient.

Again, don't interrupt the installation and configuration process by turning off the computer. When the third stage completes, you'll be able to log on. The Install Windows Service Pack wizard should confirm that the installation was a success. Click Finish. Your computer should run without any new errors or problems.
