Windows Update
-
I just put together my new machine. It's the Shuttle SN41G2 xpc system w/ radeaon 9700 all in wonder pro, 180GB HD WD 8MB cache, samsung cd-rw/dvd-rom combo & 1GB DDR pc 3200 RAM. Windows update ALWAYS! says there aren't any new updates when I know there are. I JUST installed sp1 and there should be around 20 updates. Would it work if i used the windows auto update thing? I already told it to never show up again... Is there anyway to get it back? :mad:

Is Bert Evil?I think you can manually run it form the start menu and it will come back, or at least give you the option to have it automatic again.

I found this page on some website through google: http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/catalog/en/default.asp[^] Appears to work for what I need. Still would love to know why it won't tell me the updates for just my machine...:suss:
