you can, but the reason it does not show up means that something, usually the drivers are not SP1 certified. Try downloading the latest drivers for all your hardware that is WDDM signed and check Windows Update again

at last i found the reason.. it's because i haven't update the sigmatel audio driver. After i update the driver then the sp1 appear from WU. thanks anyway

Hey guys is it ok to set it to window update automatically ? I thinking to off it lol because it will update daily one right ?? Will it really enchance our performance nor security to our window eh ? Using Vista Home Premium here

Yes. They'll update and install automatically. Of course update is better than didn't update. You can choose other options. Such as download first but you choose when to install.

Where I can change the setting ? like choose download first then choose when to install !

in ur System Properties (right click ur My COmputer > Properties) go to Security..
u'll find it there.. i use the 3rd option "notify me but dont automatically download or install them"
so i can choose which update to install. windows will inform u if the updates is 'Recomended', 'Optional' etc etc

Hi guys, I'm having trouble updating to SP1. I'm running Vista Business.

When I click on install update, this follows:


It will just be stuck at 0kb total, 0% complete until the error appears:


Tried numerous times, but to no avail. Sometimes it doesn't even show the wording 0kb total ... but just freezes there with the green bar not moving

Help please, thanks guys.

try manual update instead...

go MS download the whole SP1 installer...

Try restart your comp n see if it works.

I'll try that then. Thanks.

Of course I've tried that

I forsee a driver does not pass the WDM signature, thus the error

ppl,why i cant view my vista score and status which is activated or not..?

wow...my first vista crash in sp1 woot.... hardware failure. 0x7f, 0x08, and 0x80157000.

I upgraded from Vista Home Premium [OEM] to Ultimate X64 couple of months back. The retail Ultimate was not updated with SP1 and I ordered the Windows Vista Ultimate with SP1 64-bit DVD - English from Microsfot and it cost me nothing except the shipping charges.

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if anyone can help me install SP 1 on my Vista x64. I tried to install it using Windows Update but it keeps failing everytime. So I downloaded the standalone installer from the Microsoft website here : http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details...&displaylang=en

When it tries to install on my computer the loading bar goes halfway then this error comes up : 0x800736B3

Any help would be appreciated

Okay, until now I HAVE not receive the option to update to SP1 Vista. I am using Business for like 6 months already, update everything that auto update asked me to...i wonder what is wrong... :S

u can always manual update...

yeah i know but if there's no auto update does that mean my comp not ready?

by rit no...

SP1 is mainly a big pack of hotfixes and patches since Vista hit the store... so any Vista machine should be able to install it...

Anyone tried Readyboost and if it really helps?
