I have bought an add-on that tells me I must have SP2 (Service Pack 2) installed.
Evidently it is a key update that should have been installed over 2 years ago automatically, but some PCs still don't have it.
How do I check if I have it or not?
What do I press?

Push the "Windows" key + "Pause/Break" key at the same time.
The little screen that pops up tells you right away what OS and SP you have loaded.
Ok. Righ click My computer goto propetries (or control pannel system propetires) it will be on the top right of the box that opens. something like
System;
Microsoft Windows XP

Start%26gt; [Right click "My Computer"]%26gt; Properties.
It should say directly to the right of the picture of a monitor with the Windows logo on it.
simple if you don't have the red security shield on the bottom and you didn't disable it, then you don't have SP2. Or you can right click on My Computer%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;and go to Properties%26gt;%26gt;%26gt;and check out what it says at the top of the General tab!!! It will tell you there!

this will take you straight there.
Right-click My Computer on your desktop or in the Start menu, select Properties. A window will pop up which, along with other information, will state which Service Pack you have installed. If you don't have Service Pack 2 installed, you can download it from the Microsoft website.
Double click on My Computer
On the top menu bar you'll see File Edit View Favorites Tools Help.
Click on Help
Scroll down to About Windows
A Dialog box will open and under Microsoft Windows it will tell you what version of Windows is installed on your system and what Service Pack (SP) is installed.
Right click your "My Computer" Icon and select property. click general and you will see your system information.
click start thrn run and type winver you can also type winver at the command prompt that will tell you what your patched too.
Find "My Computer" (by clicking start or it is only your desktop)

Select Properties
