I don't think safe mode will work, reading that article you have to follow the more information bit at the bottom and go into recovery console to unistal SP2

Recovery Console won't let you remove SP2, Safe Mode would. Start up in Safe Mode, open MSCONFIG, and turn off "Startup Items". Reboot the computer and it'll skip all programs from loading. This'll make it easier to install an update.
