If I install Sp2 in my Windows will this affect any of my files on existing Sp1? Will I lost something?

No, SP@ is only a service pack, it will update operating systems files only, your existing files and programs will remain in tack and will work fine.

I would recommend going straight to SP3.

Yes, that would be much wiser coz SP2 still has many security holes which have been patched up in SP3...

and if your xp set on auto update then this will download the Sp3 and ask you what to do,so my opinion Sp3 too.And do not affraid it won't harm your programs,just refresh and fix some in the windows' stability.No fear!
