Take the following code, paste it into notepad, and save it with a .cmd extension. Then just run it (as administrator). After that. restart and hit Windows Update. It might have to download some prep files and you might have to do it a couple of times before you get SP1.


@echo off

reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\VistaSp1 /f > NUL 2>&1
reg delete HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\VistaSP1 /f > NUL 2>&1

reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WindowsUpdate\VistaSp1 /v Beta1 /t REG_SZ /d dcf99ef8-d784-414e-b411-81a910d2761d /f
IF NOT %errorlevel% == 0 ( goto ERROR)

:SUCCESS
@echo.

:ERROR

Re: SP1 FINAL (oem partner download)..

I'm curious - did it update the windows index scores like they mentioned it would. Anyone get anything above a 5.9?

Trying to decide if I should torrent and install this or not...

Cheers,

Rob
