    Vista doesn't have Service Pack 3.
    Just make sure your Windows updates are current.

    ...and....

    Everything is updated now.

    The computer seems to run very smooth and well. I was concerned about hardware problems and considered pitching this in the trash! Now it's pretty much like new.

    I have one more question. A few years back you helped me with my old computer and you gave me a link to a program that cleans up the start up menu. Do you still have that?

    ...and your opinion on the HP software. It is constantly trying to update. Is that stuff good or can I disable it somehow?

    I suggest you start new topic in Windows forum.
