Reinstall Vista Ultimate problem
I had to reinstall Windows Vista Ultimate which prior to the reinstall had
SP 1 installed. After this reinstall SP1 does not show in computer properties. Is SP1 still available somewhere on the computer for upgrading or will I have to use Windows Update to apply it ? Your help please,Richard

Your help please,Richard If looking at System in Control Panel or running winver from the Search bar on the Start Menu shows no Service Packs, then your installation media was RTM. You will need to install Service Pack 1 and then Service Pack 2. Unfortunately, there's no way to shorten the process. I would just download both Service Packs instead of doing it from Windows Update if you have a fast Internet connection. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en Learn how to install Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (MS site) - http://tinyurl.com/2rvqk5 Learn about SP2 - has links to the download, DVD ordering, and installation support - http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...ice-packs.aspx Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic! http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/#FAQ
