Windows Update not showing SP1

I was having trouble getting Windows update to provide SP1. I checked all the
drivers , etc.(Everything in the Microsoft note). Then I found a small note
in the SP1 deployment guide that said the Windows update was having trouble
scanning if a USB cable to a UPS was plugged in. It suggested unplugging all
USB cables. I did this , except for my mouse and Windows update offered SP1
immediately.

Paul, I spent a good deal of time last night updating 3 drivers on my
Toshiba laptop that prevented SP1 from appearing in Windows Update-- the
fingerprint reader (UDEK), sound (Realtek), and video (Intel). The
biggest pain was Realtek because it only installs the HD Audio feature
if you install it repeatedly (last night I had to do 3 installs, before
it gave me audio on the headphone jack and the HD Audio application in
Control Panel). Brink pointed that out to me last night, and his advice
was spot-on. Today, I am backing up critical data to a USB (WD) HDD. I
am hoping the update goes according to Hoyle...

I inadvertently got the driver name wrong--should be "UPEK
