If you go "IE, tools, Windows update, then RUN "Advanced update" it will show
you all updates available for your computer. Sheck which ones you want and
download them. It will not show SP2 yet...it's not on the main server yet.
only through auto. now.

Dont know that I understand, but if you go to Start/Winupdate then scan for
updates you will be presented with a list uf any available updates. You then
install the ones you want.

Mine don't take me to scan or even run it just takes me to expres or custom
and that's all it has. No list of updates or any of that? It has Install
updates but it's grayed out?
