Vista SP 1 Standalone Doesn't Run

I'm having multiple frustrations with the SP1 package. The automatic download
stalls right after creating a restore point. The standalone package will not
run. I click "run" and nothing happens. Have tried downloading it a number of
times. I open it as Adminstrator...no luck.

RE: Vista SP 1 Standalone Doesn't Run

Same problem, Robert. Tried all suggestions via kb on subject, including
hiding all partitions except Vista's, to no avail. After accepting EULA,
error code 0x80070490 comes up, then cancels setup. This version(32bit)
downloaded and installed RC1 of SP1 without a hitch.
