You can create your own vista sp1 installation dvd as long you have the vista dvd and the standalone installer.

bro, here is ur solution... i cant promise anything but just hope its works.. good luck...

thanx bro..will try it later cuz have to be done now..

how to create current Windows as my restore point before i install SP1?just in case something wrong i can fall back it.

i guess its a lot better now after installing SP1 right after a fresh installation..everything is smooth comparing without SP1, no more lags in transferring files which i hate the most..

got the serial can use ah?

startmenu-->program--->accesories--->system tools--->system restore

after installing all ur software still the same?
afaik SP1 is often clash with the current software for some ppl... so maybe installing SP1 after install a fresh copy of vista is a good move...

all my installed softwares have no problem running at all...
wat kind of softwares are u talking about?

normal software la... like msn, firefox, adobe, office and so on....

i read it some where in the papers saying if u upgrade SP1 from normal vista there may have a slight conflict with the current software for some ppl only... so not all... but if u have a fresh copy of vista and upgrade it to SP1 then it will be a diff story...

just successfully updated to SP1.luckily dint experience any blue screen issue and software/driver conflict.but noticed that now windows startup take longer time to boot up.

now i am able to use auto update already because i tried to update and installed latest securities patch,no more blue screen appear.yeah

just updated to SP1... but didnt notice any difference, everything is just look the same or feel the same until i move or copy big file to another drive
haha

to future-sp1-user :

SP1 offline installation contain all security patch that made before SP1.

means, after u install fresh vista, u can install sp1 directly (without using WU).

when is wave 1 coming?
i need for my chinese version vista

Windows Vista SP1 published already?

Anybody knows if our original copy of Windows Vista which comes with our laptop will automatically update itself? Or do we have do something manually ourselves first?

I own Windows Vista Business btw.

yes is out edi... and afaik its for all vista user so that include business...
try using windows update to check whether u can update to SP1 or not.... if cant then i think u need to update using the standalone...

btw, my advise is stick to windows update rather than the standalone...

I am using Vista Business SP1
Installed from stand-alone SP1 installer.

the file size of standalone sp1 too big..

i just format my pc from vista business to vista ultimate, both are 32bit. why ultimate consume so much spaces.
the partition i used for OS is 20GB. i install business only 11GB++, but ultimate is 18GB+.
i check what are the files that consume so much space and its ultimate hidden system files.
for anyone who have/are using ultimate 32bit, share your info/experience pls.
(correct me if i'm wrong)
thx

Coz Vista Ultimate have some extra features such Window Media Center.. etc.

After half-month, no prob so far....

Erm, I thought Vista Home Premium also has Window Media Center? No?

ultimate extra???(useless one)

bitlocker

Only certain version of Windows Vista have the Windows Media Center. So is Windows DVD Maker too.

on SP1 ?

where can i get a installation of vista....a cracked also can...

fuhh..u'll get "holiday" soon by mod..so better dun discuss warez/pirate here..

btw read the rules before posting

let me crack your warning bar first..

btw, I found your dupe account too.. bumping your own thread

Uh oh...

And I notice something. There's lagging every time I close IE7... Sometimes have to open task manager to close it..

wow... thats something... didnt know u could find out something like that.. haha... next time takut to duplicate acc edi...



how lagging are u talking about?? just a short lag which affect only the IE or whole pc??

anyway i have one .exe files that will cause my oc to lag when i just click on it only... i mean a single click.... then my whole pc will go lagging for a few minute before it goes back into normal... then have to delete it and dl another version only can use... but apparently that doesnt happen before i have SP1...
btw, my IE is working fine... so i maybe it is something else...

try restore ur system to previous checkpoint..
i faced this problem b4..i restore then everything ok now..

Damn... WEI before SP1 was 4.7, after Sp1 was 4.6, and now playing FIFA will lag... Even wit graphics card set to 'performance'...

Anyway to solve this?

bro, i didnt know u also posted here

anyways, check back this thread where i posted the solution...

well, SP1 solved my USB port not recognize problem...and less not responding scene now...good job compare to SP1 in XP...

after sp1, my system is much more stable than before. never hand and no bsod.

Just notice they fix the full screen + Off display thing already
But then, I am not sure why my screen stay on (with 1 min auto-off display) when I didn't run anything full screen, only some youtube site in my FF stays open.

Maybe thats the case

Wow finally the SP 1 is available for my comp's language pack. I install it via windows update. Now my computer operate faster than before, I means, open up new folder and copy, as well as internet explorer. Quite happy with it. Also I notice my Windows performance score are better than before. The gaming & graphic one from 4.6 to 4.8, now I'm happy with this update~~

SP1 is great. before this no problem. now still no problem. lols. haha. btw. if some1 got sound or graphic problem after installing vista sp1 pls update ur driver. device manager --> choose the hardware --> click enable or update driver = u're done

Just upgrade. Took me about 45m to fully install SP 1 by WU. All installation went smoothly. Still havent notice any significant changes.

Notice that we can now choose which drive to defrag and it will also tell if u really need to defrag o not

upgraded directly from XP to vista service pack 1 and now i notice my hardisk is spinning non stop (the HDD light is on ALL THE TIME).

i cant figure out what service/program is spinning the HDD.

anyone else have the same issue?
