SMS 2003 SP3 - Processor information is not reporting after installing SMS SP3.

SMS Service Pack 3 brings along a new  "advanced" client that must be installed on each monitored client as well.  If the "new" SP3 advanced client has not been installed/or fails to install, processor information is reported incorrectly.  The correct Advanced Client version for SMS SP3 should be 2.50.4253.3000.

How do I verify the Advanced Client Version?

From the client = Open Control Panel\Systems Management Properties\General Tab\SMS Client Version.

From the server:

  1. Open a collection that a client in question is a member of
  2. Properties of the Client\Hardware\SMS Advanced Client State
