There is NO service pack for VS 2008 !

Perhaps you tried to install the SP1 for VS2005 onto VS 2008 ??

There is now. So does anyone know why Visual Studio 2008 sp1 doesn't show up
in my Microsoft Update page? I also have Visual Studio 2005 installed on the
same pc and it does have an entry on Microsoft update.
Thanks.

Perhaps it hasn't been released to Microsoft Update yet?

The post to which you are replying is from April, long before this was released.
