Didn't know it was out. My laptop hasn't prompted me to download it.McCoy: "Medical men are trained in logic."

Installed on my laptop (32bit) and on my desktop (64bit).. Took about an hour on each machine, after the download with 1 restart on each machine..The "Fit" hits the "Shan"Comment

Done both of my lappies (1 x 32 and 1 x 64).
Nothing broken anyway if thats what you mean.
Battery life has improved a little on both.Eat Right, Exercise, Die Anyway.Comment

Installed on a Dell Dimension 9200.
Needed to uninstall the SigmaTel sound card drivers and use default vista drivers before the Windows Update site gave SP1 as a download option.
It's a known "feature"!
After that SP1 installed fine - haven't noticed any changes mind youComment

All I get is
Service Pack did not install. Reverting changes.
I'm back to clean install with a modem driver removed (cause Vista complained about it) and it still will not install. What a complete pile of tulipe! Do the donkeys at MicroKnobHeads ever test anything?Comment

Worked fine for me once I had removed the language packs
It won't offer it up as an install if it believes you have unsupported drivers/components installed.Comment
-
Cannot see anything in "Programs and Features"
How do I determine if the language pack is installed?
If it is how doo I remove it?Comment
-
Off the top of my head:
Control Panel
Regional Settings
I think it's the third tab where you get an option to install/uninstall language packs.Comment
