I've had automatic updating enabled but I still don't seem to have it. There are unapproved places out there to download it and there's probably a p2p file. I run Norton Internet Security/Anti-Virus and there's some slight conflicts between it and SP2 that are going to be addressed in a patch released this Tuesday, which should coincide with SP2 showing up on Windows Update. DirectX 9.0c is available for download now, which is part of SP2. That won't help you with openGL though. -- The Brain From Planet Arous (1958): "Bad alien Gor takes over scientist Steve's brain; good alien Vol takes over Steve's dog's brain." Steve [Inglo]
