    okay well you are definitely missing it, (should be 7601) let's try this route.

    This is getting exceedingly rare I actually found this info on MS's site instead of here...
    Seems to cover all the bases though.

    You do not have the option of downloading Windows 7 SP1 when you use Windows Update to check for updates
    OK. I'll work through those steps and post back shortly.

    Yeah, sorry to put you through the multistage process, but windows update issues can be incredibly difficult to trace (at least in so much as I have very often found the associated logs to be completely useless) so the general approach is just to try and cover all bases.

    ...if you feel like it you can always zip and upload the windowsupdate.log from
    c:\windows
    (or where ever it is your root windows directory is located, that is the default)

    I just can't promise it's going to help...

    Check the post I made above, I think it will sort you out.
    Worked through the methods listed:

    1. SP1 is not listed.
    2. No pending updates.
    3. Safe Central not installed.
    4. Listed drivers are not installed according ro dxdiag (I have igdumd64 drivers installed)
    5. V-lite not used to customize W7.
    6. This is the final step and the webpage shows several files listed. Any idea which one to choose for my machine?

    I appreciate the help!

    The main largest one, the dvd image.
    It's the only one that contains absolutely everything you could possibly need.
    Sadly the size is a tad high.

    Do you know how to burn a iso image file?

    Computer date and time is correct (3/10/12).

    Yes, I should be able to burn the ISO file. I will most likely tackle this later today.

    Any idea why this is not available through the Update Center (just curious)?

    Thank you and the others who posted for your willingness to help. Will post back as soon as I can.

    No the logs didn't really clear much of anything up for me either.
    Other than to tell you there was an insane amount of activity on the 14th of last month.
    Nothing seems to have produced any errors though.

    WU did not offer me (and many others) SP1 until the Intel HD graphics driver was updated.
