SP2 is not coming up in my list of Windows updates. I looked up an article at support.microsoft.com but it is really involved. Does any one know of a quick way of getting SP2? Thanks.

Forgot to mention; the KB article mentions checking every update that is listed as Recommended, Important and Optional. Among the optional items is support for different languages; do I need these? Anyway, the idea is to make sure you have all the updates before trying to get SP2.

You can go to the windows site and download SP2 separately and then run it instead of waiting for it to show up on windows update. Also you can download SP3.

Thanks! Does this include Vista Ultimate 64-bit also? I was not aware of a SP3. How many service packs have come out since Vista was released?

Vista only has 2 Service Packs out, the third SP is still under development.
