Okay, to find out which service pack...

Right click "My computer," and go down to properties. On the page that opens, it will tell you everything you need to know about your version are Windows. But...

Look at the sticker label on the side of the hard drive. Are you sure that it is really the 120gb hard drive and not another hard drive my mistake? (I've done that before... heh)

Is your hard drive IDE or SATA? And what about the other hard drive(s) in your computer?
