This SP1 update on Vista isn't improving. It also wasn't there by mistake.
It was there. The machine takes a long time to boot, still and it also takes
a hell of a lot longer to do the same tasks than it did before SP1.

For a couple of hours last Thursday 64 Bit Vista was available on Windows
Update by mistake.

It takes a least 5 boot occurrences and probably more before a new Vista
release learns what programs need to be used during or right after the
system boots and until it has done this it loads far too many programs/

Bob,

Vista SP1 RTM has been available since early February using a
Microsoft provided registry hack. This hack is for the final release of
SP1 (SP1 RTM), not the RC and RC Refresh. Do a search and you should have
no problems finding it. I just downloaded it again yesterday after
reinstalling my OS. It also includes a new version of IE.

C.B.



Yes I understand that. What I was questioning is the OPs statement that he
received it via Windows updates.
"Installed the SP1 sent to me in the Windows updates"

Yes that is right - because MS released it for 64 bit Ultimate! READ! LEARN!

Bob,

Yes, you are correct. Microsoft accidently released the update via
Windows Update for X64 systems. They pulled it soon thereafter.
If you want SP1 now please send me an email and I will provide the
link for you to download the registry hack. The hack is from Microsoft so
it is safe to use.


Thanks C.B.

I plan to wait until SP1 is available as an update and even then I'll wait a
while to see if others are having problem with it before I install it.
When I asked the question I was thinking perhaps the OP was having a problem
due to an unauthorized version of it.

Bit of irony in these two statements, don't you think?
"Microsoft accidently released the update via Windows Update for X64
systems. They pulled it soon thereafter."
"The hack is from Microsoft so it is safe to use."

What the hell has that got to do with the problem? Vista SP1 for 64 bit
Ultimate still STUFFS the machine. It has a horrible boot time (around 3 or
4 minutes now compared to about 30 seconds prior to SP1) and it is so SLOW
you would think you were running a 2Ghz machine with 256megs ram!

Your link was no help.

Too late. SP1 for Vista does that for you on automatic updates!

Sorry but wrong. As I said before, the SP1 release for Ultimate 64 bit
came out in the last week. You should have read my original message. Keep
up with the times!



Doesn't take long to decide to killfile you. You not only fail to admit
when you are incorrect, you seem to know a lot less than you think you know.
Don't bother to reply. I won't see it.

Dickwad, I got the damned file like I said. YOU were the one who had to
admit to being wrong you utter fool. What proves you are a fool is not only
your inability to admit you are wrong but also that you actually use a
KILLFILE. What an utter twit you are. Oh well, no worries. You have
killfiled me so I don't have to hear your foolish ruminations.
