This is Windows XP Pro, not Windows 2000. And it has SP1.

What Service Pack do you have running? I think you need to have SP3 or higher to have the Automatic Update Service.

There is a Windows XP Procomputer that I support that is missing the automatic updates service. The service doesn't appear in the services list, and the Automatic Updates tab of the system control panel is missing. There are no active policies intentionally set on this computer (heck, we're not even using AD), and as near as I can tell there are none unintentionally set. I can't find any information about this in the knowledgebase. Anybody else run across anything like this?
