Yesterday, I updated one of my computers with Windows XP Hotfix (SP2)
KB810243 (Windows XP Media Center update) and noted upon conclusion that my
"Windows Update" page had been changed to
http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.co....aspx?ln=en-us.
My other computer was updated with KB810243 last February. How can I now
change the "Windows Update" page from the v4 to the v5 version?

You can run windows update if this dose not change to v5 of windows update
then change v4 to v5 and press go this will install v5 of windows update.

Thank you qzxcvbn it worked. I had previously unsuccessfully tried scanning
for updates while in v4, then typing the full v5 URL but neither seemed to
work but going to the v4 page and then just changing v4 to v5 did the trick.
