Hi,

Yes I just got a new computer and I'm running Vista Home Premium x64-bit and I have updated all the updates from Windows Update. I was wanting to know why Service Pack 2 is not showing up on it? Or do you have to download it yourself?
Do you have to have IE8 installed then you can download SP2?
