Windows XP, Vista SP’s once again back as an automatic update

by Robert Nelson on May 7, 2008 at 10:48 AM

Microsoft has released Windows XP SP3 to the masses and also re-added Vista SP1 as an automatic update. After having some recent compatibility issues, Microsoft had delayed SP3 for XP and although SP1 for Vista remained available, it had to be manually downloaded.

It seems everything has been fixed and both updates are now available and waiting to be installed. Simply wait for Windows Update to kick in, or if you feel like you cannot wait any longer lunch the Update get the satisfaction on having an up to date system, at least for a little while.

  • The Service Pack was delayed due to compatibility issues with Microsoft’s Dynamics RMS retail management package.  Apparently they haven’t fixed the issue yet and only implemented a work around that detects whether the machine has Microsoft Dynamics RMS installed.  If it finds RMS on the machine it will not show the update on the website, at least not for now.
