it depends in which game u are playing.. some of the game in vista sp1 with dx10 games have slight improvement..... but at the same time some of the game wont perform so good compared to non-sp1...... the improvement will not make u "wahhhhh........." coz it is just software changes... not hardware... most of the dx9 games have perform worse in sp1.... some exceptional too depending games, resolution, settings and more...

Thankz 4 ur info man...
Haha..LOL!

to know what is the benefit then look at those websites....

VISTA SERVICE PACK 1 DIRECT DOWNlOAD

I hate to say this but, SP1 crashes my Windows Movie Maker...

i have to uninstall chinese language in order to install sp1..

i wish u the best but i guess u gonna meet at least a lil bit of prob soon IMO mostly can be fixed lar...

mine crash few times after update....

in the end, i updated my LAN driver from windows update n no probs already so far

How to fix my windows movie maker crash??

I am pretty sure that nothing can be done..expect uninstall SP1.

or if u insist using SP1, reformat Vista, and then install SP1

MY PC auto Update to SP1...now my Ram can see from 3020 >3070 hehe

Lol...same here...But at the System Properties, i'm sure everyone's that is using 4gb display the correct amount?

I have just uninstall SP1..But still crash..
Last time before I install SP1 it can still be use without any problems...
shi--- vista!

display yes, but in system resources it still shows 3.4GB of allocated RAM that can be used

Me too.

Can only "see" 4GB of rams but in reality only 3+ GB

Also regained a few GB of space in the main partition

For the lulz

Ok back to the question whether my vista is sp1 equipped or not. Please find the attachment. They said we can view it in the system properties. But I can't see it even though there is nothing more to update.

Your Windows Vista is not yet SP1.

whats wrong with that bro?

I think only Ultimate only got show SP1 ...my home premium does't show it...but i am very sure i got update it to SP1...coz this downlaod is very long ...after install it need restart and during resatrt got configuration got 3 step and it take very long time...hehe

no, all edition has SP1 shown on the WU.

ic...so my windows is not equipped with sp1...but how do I get it though? because I always use the windows update and there's nothing left that needs to be updated so I thought that it is up-to-date

i doubt that u r in sp1 now... usually they will show that ur system is sp1... its not for ultimate only... its for all vista... maybe u should try checking for updates or install the standalone...

Windows Vista SP1 includes many performance enhancements. For example, SP1:

Addresses an issue in the current version of Windows Vista that makes browsing network file shares
consume significant bandwidth and not perform as quickly as expected.

Improves the performance of copying files. In internal tests, copying files from one folder to another on
the same local disk was 25 percent faster. Copying files from a remote computer that was not running Windows Vista SP1 was 45 percent faster. Because of networking improvements in SP1, copying files from a remote computer that was also running Windows Vista SP1 was as much as 50 percent faster.

Improves the progress estimation when copying files by using Windows Explorer so that the time estimate in the progress window appears within two seconds.

Improves the speed of adding files to and extracting files from compressed folders.

Improves the performance of power transitions (for example, resuming from hibernation and standby mode).

Improves the performance of domain-joined computers when operating off the domain. Before Windows Vista SP1, users would experience long delays when opening the File dialog box.

Improves battery life on some computers by reducing CPU use and redrawing the screen less frequently.

Improves the logon experience by removing the occasional 10-second delay between pressing CTRL-ALT-DELETE and the password prompt appearing.

Reduces the time to return to a user's session when using the Photo screensaver.

Improves overall media performance by reducing many glitches.

In internal testing, reduces by approximately 75 percent the time to start Event Viewer.

haih yesterday mine still stalled at shut down

mine is Vista Home edition.can install SP1?

another thing is i just recover my vista and after windows installed all the securities patches,blue screen appear again.anybody know why?

Yes you can. SP1 can be applied to any/every version of Vista.



Could be anything from faulty hardware (RAM), to a bad running copy of Vista (something went wrong somewhere, bad programms etc etc), malware/virus.

Try to do a startup repair first (boot from the DVD, and choose repair, then follow the instructions).
If that still doesn't work and you want to keep your programs and setting intact, re-install Vista from within Vista (an in-place install); i.e. boot into Vista, insert the Vista DVD and install.

The best and most recommended way would be to have a clean format and install though, as you erase everything and start clean. When installing programs again, install them one by one, to see which (if any) of them causes any problems. One by one would mean, install, reboot, everything ok, then only install the next one.

But my update section is empty le...all can update i already update le...even the mircosoft sliverlight 1.0 also intall le through update list

That could mean that you have a driver installed that is classified "unstable for SP1" by Microsoft, hence it does not show up under Windows update.
They are doing this to prevent users from upgrading to SP1 and suddenly finding their system unstable/prone to crashes.

Try installing from the offline installer.

Try pressing the check for update?

Try already..still nothing on it.......But ram from 3020 become 3070 already

In order to resolve your issue, you should try installing Microsoft(R) Windows Vista(tm) Service Pack 1 Five Language Standalone (KB936330). You can go here for more information on how to download it :
