| | Re: What's the difference between SP1 RC Refresh 2 and the full SP1? As it turns out, Vista SP1 RC Refresh 2 is the final, Released-To-Manufacturing (RTM) version. Both SP1 RC Refresh 2 and RTM are Build 18000. If you installed SP1 RC 2, there is no need to uninstall it! -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User --------------------------------------------------------------- "Stan" wrote: Can anyone please list the most significant differences between SP1 RC Refresh 2 and the soon to be released full SP1?

| | Re: What's the difference between SP1 RC Refresh 2 and the full SP1? The Vista SP1 RC Refresh (aka RTM) is not time limited, nor does any message appear on the desktop. Any SP1 beta build prior to SP1 RC Refresh will be time limited. -- Carey Frisch Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User --------------------------------------------------------------- "BChat" wrote: Carey, Does this mean it will NOT time bomb in June?
