    When connected to the proper SQL instance, execute "SELECT @@VERSION" in a (new) query window. The result will show you the edition of SQL Server and also states information about installed service pack.

    That shows the server's service pack. Since this is a .net error, it's a client error from management studio. To see if you've patched management studio, Help -> About and look at the version number there and compare it against any of the lists that google can get you on what service pack has what version number.
