| | Re: KB936330 vista sp1 Right now I am just trying to determine if Sp1 installed itself Tues. From what I can tell it appears not. I looked at updates installed, and I do not see this listed. Nor Do I see it in the suggested install list. I saw on a MS link to click Start then R-click Computer, and look for an Edition box. I do not see anything like that on my sys. Vista Bus. using Classic settings.. Right now I have no prob. waiting, just want to see if I have it or not. This is a new HP Pc w/Vista preinstalled.

| | Re: KB936330 vista sp1 Here is advice given on another forum for some people trying to install SP1: Quote: > 1. Back up all of your data files. > 2. Create a Restore Point. > 3. Download the 434MB 5-language file from http://tinyurl.com/32z6vj > 4. Start > msconfig (as administrator). > 5. Under Services tab, check the Hide all Microsoft services box. > 6. Under Services tab, Disable all. > 7. Under Startup tab, Disable all. > 8. Reboot. > 9. Install the SP1 download - expect 30-60 minutes with 2-3 reboots. > 10. When complete, go to msconfig as administrator again, restore the > Services and Startups you wish to run, or under the General tab select > Normal startup. > > You're finished. > > If you encounter any conflicts, use msconfig to suppress the startup or > service causing it, and seek the latest driver, file, app, etc. > > If you cannot get an updated file/app/driver that is compatible with SP1, > and you must have that function, roll back. Sorry... > > No warranty with this advice, though I was successful on three > recalcitrant computers that should have updated the simple way, but > wouldn't. They run fine now, showing 6001.
