How to determine if my system is Windows XP Service Pack 1?

11-18-2003, 11:25 PM

I am about to install BackUp MyPC (Veritas). The documentation comes with an
addendum that says that if you use Windows XP SP1 you have to install in a
special (and ratehr complicated) way.

I have Windows XP Professonal on my computer but I don't know if it is SP1.
How do I determine if it is SP1?

Thanks in advance!
