Windows update notification icon disappears

[Fred]

Hello everybody.

I re-installed my PC :
- XP
- mother board drivers
- XP SP2
- ATI Radeon 9250 graphic card driver
- Winzip, Adobe reader, Windows live mail, live messenger, ...

And then, when the Windows Update notification icon appears, it
disappears when I click on it.

Any body as an idea about this subject ?

Thank you for advance.

Sincerely.

Fred.

As in, since you installed SP3 maybe? If so: Uninstall and it'll
probably work. Check MS for the "fix", I don't have a link handy.

No, as in your reinstalled WinXP SP2 and then installed SP3 manually.
