Windows Ultimate Extras missing

I've never been able to download one. Windows Dreamscene has never
been available even though others see it. I dont see the language
packs either. No Bitlocker either. I always get "There are no Windows
Ultimate Extras available" no matter what.

I have already tried stopping the windows update service and deleting
everything out of C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution. That didnt help
either. Still no Ultimate Extras. So far, the ULTIMATE has been
nothing but the Ultimate ripoff and POS.

Have you checked out Control Panel>Add/Remove Windows Components?

Have you activated your copy of Ultimate? You won't see the extras if you
have not activated.

Yes, i've activated it.. I've been using it for a few months now. And
I dont have them installed in add/remove programs. When I go to
Personlize -- Desktop Background, Dreamscene isnt an option. It is on
other Vista computers with it installed.

Thanks,
-Ben

Is the Service Pack 1 release candidate on the machine?

Not that this will help the OP, but I had Extras (including DreamScene)
prior to activating.

Yes, SP1 is on the machine. Course, I installed it with the hope that
it would fix this issue!

I can uninstall it if you have some idea in mind?

Dreamscene is not currently available to SP1 users, so what you're seeing is
currently expected. That availability will be handled in the future: it's
simply not available now to SP1 users.
