Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit
 
 

[SOLVED] Unable to install SP 1!

OK, If anyone else has a problem like mine, with the Windows Update, open Windows Update. Click on 'View Available Updates' and then right click on KB947562 and 'hide' it. Then disable any 3rd party anti-virus and firewalls you have and check for new updates! It should find you SP1.
Hope it helps!

Well, Im using Vista 64bit, and I accidentaly downloaded the 32bit installer. Now, I also tried downloading the 64bit installer but I also got an error there aswell.
So, I started wondering why; I went back to the download page Download details: Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Five Language Standalone for x64-based Systems (KB936330) and noticed near the bottom it said:

Quote:
DO NOT CLICK DOWNLOAD IF YOU ARE UPDATING JUST ONE COMPUTER: A smaller, more appropriate download is available on Windows Update.
OK, So I click on windows update, and it open WU on my Laptop. Problem is, I cannot check for new updates because of the stupid KB947562 update that everyone is having problems with! I tried EVERYTHING to install KB947562 but with no luck.

Anyone have a download link for the 64bit installed for ONE computer?

Any help would be great,

Thanks,
Alex
