How many times did it restart during the install?

For me it restarted 2x.

Two annoyances so far. I had to reinstall Logitech Gaming Software to have my G25 recognized, and then Test Drive: Unlimited locked up on me. The second may not necessarily be SP1, but it'd be a hell of a coincidence given the game has been rock solid for me.

It restarted 2 times but after it restarts, it was installing by percentage. ( 1 of..2 of..3 of..)

Edit: Been running since I've installed it and all seems to be going well. No glitches drips or errors.

It just came up on Windows Update for me about 30 mins ago, about the same time DT posted it went up with a link to Windows Update. Just finished installing and downloading the first part.

It took a total of near two hours to complete the SP1 installation in my lappy.
That includes approx. 20 minutes of removing the early SP1 RC trial.
So far so good.
Will do the gaming rig later when I have a chance.

It showed up on Windows Update x64, but the download is stuck at 12%. Might have to get the standalone.

I'm leaving the 32bit alone for now.

 

[Noema]

SP1 wouldn't show up in WU so I started downloading the 64-bit standalone version. Then I refreshed WU and it found SP1, a much smaller 121MB download

 

[Ryland]

I installed from the standalone version and all seems ok.

 

[Sureshot324]

It's 10:30PM and it still doesn't show up in WU so I'm dling the standalone x64.

 

[cbuchach]

Does anyone know if MS will be offering an "upgrade" disc of Vista that includes SP1 for people who have already purchased Vista?

 

[rockyct]

woot, finally shows up for me.

 

[jkresh]

still hasn't shown up for me on my desktop (64) or laptop 32. I guess I will download the stand alones or just give it a few days as I may want to wait for the weekend just in case the install screws something up.

 

[Sureshot324]

Just installed it from the standalone x64. No problems so far...

Can anybody tell me whats the build number of pubic version?...I have RTM version (v6.0 Build 6001-18000)

 

[Sylvanas]

Installed X64, running fine so far, it does indeed feel a little 'snappier' than before.

Says file version is 6.0.6001.17028 when mousing over the SP1 file on my desktop.

There was a search option in the Start Menu, now it's gone. I hate that search box at the bottom. Anyway I can get it back?

Damn. This company really is fucked up. They've now decided to make it harder to use one of the best features in Vista. I'm going back to pre-SP1.

 

[Dari]

Ahhh. That was easy. If it ain't broke, don't fuck with it.

 

[nerp]

Don't blame MS. That was removed because of google and yahoo bitching and moaning. Abandoning SP1 because of that small detail seems silly to me. SP1 introduces a lot more performance and reliability improvements.

Installed 64-bit SP1 on my three boxes. All is fine. One thing I've noticed is that now my USB transfer speeds to external devides are much higher.
It used to be 10-15MB/sec to external 2.5" HDD, now it is 30-40 MB/sec. Same files, same HDD.

 

[Xavier434]

Any feedback on the 32bit SP1 results? I will most likely be installing the update tonight but I wanted a heads up on what I can expect.
