I really can't tell if there has been a performance improvement, I never had any performance issues before VSP1. Posted by: Nate 26 Mar I dont believe that is the case.
I have Vista Home Premium installed on my machine and I also have automatic updates turned on. I did not recieve SP1 automatically. Infact, I did not even know about it until I read this article here. It's been almost a week now since I have installed SP1 and I still stand by my orignal statements that SP1 is well worth the download and install taime. Love it. Posted by: Diane 26 Mar It installed in about an hour and everything seemed to be working fine.
When I turned my Toshiba laptop on the following day it would not start up. I ended up having to go back to the restore point before SP1 was installed. I haven't any idea what caused the problem with the SP1 install, but I guess I will wait until another SP version is ready and try again.
Posted by: Steve 27 Mar After it tried to install the first step, it could not install, and reverted. I tried killing all services, an when I did that, I could not connect to the internet, and when I turned on the services I needed to connect, Windows Update would not run. So I turned that back on, and it kept getting an error when I tried to run it. Wouldn't even download the SP. It sounds like this is going to be a forced install in the near future. I hope not. Posted by: Leonardo 27 Mar The update went fine and, after reboot, one improvement I noticed was my Vista Index performance rating went up from 3.
So Vista is getting It was to slow and big before, so i unistalled it. My computer is much faster now! Posted by: Anderson 22 May Killed my toshiba at home. After booting up it freezes. I was able to get my data from Safe mode. Now I am debating on wether to start with a clean install but I hate to do that.
This sucks! I need my computer! Posted by: Emma 07 Jul Left it installing SP1 yesterday morning, it said it had failed and was removing the changes, then came up with the logon after it had finished configuring itself. Instead of logging on, I chose to shut it down, and when my partner powered it up later on, she got the choice to either repair Windows or start normally - either option just results in the same screen coming up, over and over again.
I guess if I have to take it to be repaired, Microsoft won't be offering to foot the bill? How can they get away with releasing service packs that actually kill people's computers??? Posted by: Ray 10 Jul I had the same problem as Emma, My hp dv laptop won't start.
I spent hrs with HP tech help and they had no clue what was going on. I bought a recovery disc by the way it should have been free. The disc was no good, Tech help stated after 3hrs of getting no where that the disc was faulty. CAn anyone help me? Posted by: Carolyn 24 Aug I have tried for two months now, probably about 25 times, to install Vista's SP1.
Each time it indicates "successful installation" but within a few seconds it re-states "failed installation". Has anyone else gone through this?
I think God's trying to tell me I don't need it! Wait for SP2! Posted by: Ann 17 Mar I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment.
