Re: 65 mb or 427 mb sp1 dowload?

The larger amount would be for a system that has not had any updates at all
yet, for example if it is a fresh install. The smaller size would be for
systems that have been updated with most updates prior to the release of
SP1.
No need to prep your system prior to updating to SP1. Always a good idea to
have your system backed up.
