Windows Vista Service Pack 1

We have two networked PCs, purchased at the same time, both running Vista
Business. One of them received the Service Pack 1 update about six weeks
ago, and the other has not received the update.

What's happening? I'd like to update the second PC as soon as possible.

Thanks.

Re: Windows Vista Service Pack 1

Many thanks for the link. I have looked at it and *none* of the seven
reasons applies to my system. There are no updates pending, not even
optional ones, but when I check for updates I get the message that my
computer is up to date.
But I still don't have SP 1, and it's not being offered.

You can give the stand-alone installer a try instead (435MB):

Make sure you have the necessary prerequisites installed first, look for
KB937287 and KB938371 in your Windows Update log. They can both be
downloaded directly from MS Download Center:
