WinXP versions

[Jim Harkins]

Hi, People! Just got into this XP thingy (Home version) and I'm
wondering - is there any way of telling, from version numbers or such,
whether my version has all the service packs and updates, etc., or do
I have to search them out and download/apply them? Thanx Muchly!
