Service Pack 1
Shortly after Windows 95 was released, Service Pack 1 was released to update some
bugs found in Windows 95. To find out if you have Service Pack 1, right click MY COMPUTER

Under SYSTEM:, it will say something like:

next set of updates.
If the numbers are 4.00.950b, do not go any further. You have OSR/2 and need no updates
at this time.
