[Gimp-user] Cannot install program

[empty_search <forums gimpusers com>]

I downloaded the latest version of GIMP on my Windows 7 64-bit  machine.  When I
try to install it, a box pops up which says "Error - This program requires
Windows Service pack 3 or later.  As far as my computer is concerned, I am
completely updated in terms of updates.  I have also looked for a Service Pack 3
for Windows 7 and cannot find one.

Hope that someone can explain what I am doing wrong.
