Can't update x64 XP

I have a new 64-bit AMD system, and got the x64 version
of XP. Now when I go to Windows Update, I get
the "Administrators Only" error. It recommends a few
things to do to the shortcut, none of them work.

On the knowledgebase, it recommends some things to do in
regedit. Like
HKEY_LOCALMACHINE/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentProfil
e/WindowsUpdate
The path might be completely wrong, but on all the cases
I am missing the last path that is the windowsupdate.
Even the one under HKEY_LOCALUSERS.../WindowsUpdate
doesn't exist. Any ideas to get update to work?

There is no Windows Update for Windows XP-64 bit version, it's a beta
and is updated to the beta testers by newer beta releases being sent to
them. Since you're not a beta tester there will be no updates
available unless MSFT makes a later "preview" version available.

Where did you get your copy of XP-64?
