Hmmm, I found this post online and it seems to be my case, the IT guy had installed every display language you could think of! I dont know why when I work in a British company and everyone here is British! for god's sake! I am uninstalling the additional languages now then I will try again
Yup this was the reason guys! I uninstalled all the languages that the admin had installed (he probably thought it is cool to install every MUI available) and then SP1 installed in a breeze!
