Click to expand...

I'll go for this easy option :D :nod:

Ohh... there are 4 optional updates in Windows Update too, one of which is "Windows Tinker" :lol: No idea what it does, but I'll find out in a few minutes!
 
ah, that because you have "Ultimate" and Tinker is one of your, not-to-be-had-by-just-anyone useless freebies.

;)
 
PC crashed once whilst downloading the updates, but thats better than normal for my chimp built pc!
Cheers for the reminder though Muckshifter:thumb:
 
I'm actually shocked, this Tinker game is quite fun :eek::eek::eek:
 
I have Vista on auto so it looks as though I already have that lot, on this machine anyway.

Only optional extra update is Silverlight, whatever that is. Sounds like some bug running round the bath to me :eek:
