how do you find out what updates you have on vista, service packs etc.

Philip · Dec 28, 2008, 17:43:21

control panel > windows updates > view update history

control panel > system for service pack

oh dear. just got a shout from the wife says that her new laptop had a message that windows is shutting down to recover from an error........or something similar. dont know exactly what it was but any ideas. is there any logs or the like to record this. its running Vista remember

Baz · Dec 28, 2008, 17:56:48

oh yeah. dont know what that was just waiting to see if it settles down. I bought two laptops, one for the wife and other for son.....this morning sons wouldnt boot up

all he said was that last night on shut down it displayed some message like, 'updating configuration' or similar, dont really know. I just turned off left it for a while, unplugged from power and it booted up ok.Have no idea at all what it could be.All ive done on them bothe is install a bit software and get them on the network and on line. Have just updayed the firmware for my router incase it needed to be vista compatible as was just on XP before:dunno: just a guess

hope I'm not gonna get lots of daft faults like this, will put me off Vista for good.

It's a bit of a maze, isn't it.
