tkam Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I've had sp1 running on my laptop (vista home premium 64-bit) and my desktop (vista ultimate 64-bit) since Saturday. The install didn't take all that long for a service pack especially one this large and it worked flawlessly. The big problems I'd had with vista the "calculating time remaining" bug and the slow file copy bug have been completely fixed. The whole OS seems to be faster and more responsive over all. I've seen some reports of boot times increasing post-sp1 vs pre-sp1 but if it is any longer it hasn't been noticeable to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grand Enigma Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 Cool... the file copy thing is rather annoying with my HTPC. Hope this speeds it up a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nenso Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 SP1 shouldn't be out yet. Vista is kinda a piece of junk until it comes out so I cannot wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luvdunhill Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 I'm pulling it part at work to see what they "fixed" but didn't tell anyone about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elephas Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 You can either download the Vista+SP1 disc image and do a clean install or use a script to make Windows Update download SP1. WU will download the Release Candidate, but it should be the same as SP1 RTM. I've had no problems either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
