service pack 1 is supposed to be comming out tomorrow on windows update. I was wondering if the update size will be smaller if you have gotten all the updates prior to the service pack. I don't really want to have to dl the full update which is over a gig on my dialup
 
SP1 for x86 is only about 450MB in size. For x64 it is about 700MB in size. That is the final size.
 
Microsoft has talked about offering the Vista with SP1 disc to users by snail mail. But sadly there has been no talk of just the SP on disc.
Yes it sucks for Dial up but it is not as bad as downloading all of Vista...
 
I'm tempted to download it here because microsoft's servers are usually pretty fast but if that fails I am getting 1.5mbps wireless internet on the 28th I think
 
Is SP1 out yet? Do you just use Windows Update to download it?

Edit >

Windows Vista SP1 will report 4 GB of system memory (RAM) on systems that have 4 GB of memory installed

Finally lol, sick of Vista reporting 2.5GB.

Okay now read this. It will REPORT 4GB. It will not allow you to use all 4GB.

That is a flaw in the kernel. Change change it with a SP.
 
sp1 just appeared for me now 86mb. its going to take all night and hopefully my internet connection holds up all night
