Where is my Ultimate Dreamscene?

It appears some folk (including myself) aren't getting the update. I
have Vista Ultimate and previous extras have loaded with no problem.
I viewed the update history to see if I had missed it - it's not in
update history . I tried the check for updates button and no updates
are no available (last update was 2/13.) I checked the desktop
background menus to see if it had mysteriously appeared - no joy. I
checked the Control Panel to ensure I'm still running Windows Vista
Ultimate and that's it activated - all good.

Does somebody know why some people aren't getting the update or what
might be preventing the update?
 
Since it's an "Optional" update, you'll have to go out to windows update and
request it manually.
 
People who are not running the final code of Vista (RTM - Retail - OEM) will
not get the Ultimate Extras.

I have an OEM version, will I be able to get it?

and Do I need to be activated first?


Thx

Hi,

I have the french version of Vista Ultimate and it is activated. I didn't
find anywhere the dreamscene extra. Is it only available in english ???
 
Richard,

I'm running the OEM version of Vista Ultimate on my new out of the box
Dell Inspiron 1705E and as I mentioned in the original message, I
received the other ultimate extras without issue. Also, I already
checked to ensure that I'm activated. Any suggestions?

Check your settings for Windows Update. Make sure that you have the box
checked for Recommended updates.
