I feel so dumb asking this!

How can I tell if my new computer has SP2 already loaded? And if it isn't, should I download it? What do you guys think?

Thanks

    Yes, I have it.

    I've looked at both these before but not paid attention to the finer detail!

    Thanks again

    Make sure windows updates are enabled in control panel, security center as well, there are loads of updates available since SP2.
    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:
