That really shouldn't have anything to do with it. The board is hardware, the OS is software. If Windows isn't offering any updates you may have an issue.
Also another possibility is that the OS needs to be reactivated since you replaced the MB. That tends to happen a lot. Check that that's not the issue.
Let us know.
This is also true.... where are you??? US?
Well, I'm in the Western USA if it matters.
I am activated. Actually, I had to re-activate by phone when I put the new board in. I just rechecked and it says "activation was successful" (referring to my reactivation of a couple of days ago).
you should only be concerned if you have not received the updates after 24 hours
Ok, thanks Nick. I'll keep an eye on it.
It only offered me 2 updates when I checked about 3 hours ago. Installed them then went surfing,when I read this thread I went back and "doublechecked" and there were 22 more. Am installing them as we speak.
Hope this is the right thread to post this.
I have one update that just will not install, i have turned off firewall & antivirus. It still will not install !
