Problems of Service Pack 2 (Vista)

Hello

I'm trying to upgrade to Vista (32-bit) SP1 to SP2. I follow all the instructions of update, download the files, download the "green check" telling me that it is installed. When I check the 'Windows' edition (in system properties), it still said SP1 - even if the update log shows that SP2 has been 'installed successfully!
If anyone has had this problem or has a solution for this? I don't like, but I have to download Adobe Pro X to work, and because I do not have SP2 it wont :-(
See you soon

Hello

I suggest you check in Windows Update history if Windows Vista SP2 installation was successful or not.

Check out the link below to see the Windows updates are installed.

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/see-which-Windows-updates-are-installed

Alternatively, you can try to install the stand-alone version of the Windows Vista SP2 on the system in a State of boot also temporarily disable any security software before starting the download.

Note:

Activate security software once you are done with the troubleshooting steps.

Put your boot system helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

See the following article in the Microsoft KB for more information on how to solve a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:

Note:

After troubleshooting, be sure to set the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 in the above article.
