If the missing upgrades are pre-SP1 then you don't need to worry about
them at all since service packs are cumulative. If they are post-SP1 and
pre-SP2, just get SP2 and install that and be happy (well, be happy if
installing SP2 doesn't do some obscure nasty thing to your system). The
last I heard, MS would even mail you a CD containing SP2 free for the
asking so you don't even have to download it if you are on a slow
connection.
