| | SP1 still not being offered Hi Folks I have been doing quite a bit of work trying to discover why auto-update is still not offering me SP1. My latest suspicion is that the presence of freebie 'Roxio Creator DE version v 9.0.116' (also apparently known as 'Roxio Easy Media Creator 9') might be the culprit. I am using Windows Vista Home Premium on a Dell Dimension 9200. Any ideas please? Cheers John (IDontBelieveIt) (To reply to me only, omit the "z") |

| | Re: SP1 still not being offered Hi Zilla Many thanks for your message - oh dear, I don't like the sound of your "failed to boot" situation. Anyway, I followed Tom's advice about finding a replacement driver. I've downloaded it and so far so good. Hopefully, for one reason or another, I will soon be offered SP!!

| | Re: SP1 still not being offered Hi Folks Just to let you know .... After taking Tom Allen's advice (see his message below), I was at last offered SP1 and installed it OK. Thanks again, Tom.
