On my 7 machine where the OS was installed including SP1 anyway, in comes this update today which I think is rather odd.
Anyone have any explanation for the apparent anomaly?
same here - what's cooking? geeks, help pls!
I've got 3 machines asking for it, 2 not asking for it... I don't know whats going on
I got it, as well. Very strange, since my original DVD had SP1 included. I ran/installed the update anyway, and I can't find any changes made to my install.
UPDATE: WU shows that it was installed without issue.

The 3 that asked for it didn't install it properly, saying it "failed" somehow. So, yeah, no idea whats going on there :/
Got it.

Are you guys on 32-bit Windows 7? Out of all of my Windows 7 machines, the only one that got this update was my 32-bit VM.
actually, yeah. The 3 (2 laptops, one desktop) that are asking for it are 32bit, the ones (both desktops) that aren't are 64..
That's really wierd.
One laptop is refusing to install it (errors out with 8024200D(32b Ultimate), the other (32b Pro) did it no issues.
Perplexing as all heck
I noticed it wasn't as big as the original SP1, only around 2MB. The original .exe was at least 500MB and the ISO was almost 2GB so this must be a revision.
I saw it only on my netbook which carries 32-bit 7. It and 1 other update failed, but after a reboot it installed OK.
I'll boot into my 64-bit one and see if it went in there, but think not.
As I thought, and as stated earlier by someone else, wasn't offered in my 64-bit. Must have been a revision of SP1 for 32-bit systems. Odd though.
