xp corporate & windows update

evilc · #1 09-10-2002, 10:24 AM

OK, I have 2 PCs, both running winXP corp with the FCKGW-RHQQ2-YXRKT-8TG6W-2B7Q8 CD key.
One has been running for months, the new one I installed yesterday and discovered that windows update did not work on the new PC and it would not let me run the SP1 update.
Windows Update works on the old one on which I have NOT installed SP1, or even tried to (im scared !)
I have tried using a new CD key on the new PC and it let me install SP1 after that, but still not windows update.
Any idea on how it knows ? How can I enable windows update on the other one ?

If you can install SP1, why bother to run windows updates. SP1 includes all patches. and take care of windows updates if you use hacked XP, Microsoft can trace your ip through windows updates.
