    Hello All!

    I'm right now using Windows Vista Basic edition on my laptop. But from the last few days, I'm regularly getting update notice that I should go for "windows vista service pack 1" update.

    Should I really update to windows vista service pack 1? How is it? Could anybody provide their suggestions based on the experience.

    Thanx in advance.

    Cheers,
    Markov

    Hello

    I did the installation for Vista SP1 - it is a monster, takes a long time to download/install, as it is a lot of updates. I have nothing negative to say about it. I really don't know what it has added. I always - always install the updates they send. Sorry not to be of more help.

    It's still the same thing for me. I didn't see much different. The reason I upgrade to service pack 1 because I change my Vista into OSX Leopard LoL

    I have had a wonderful experience with Vista and installing Vista SP1 did not make a noticable difference. Don't let the iHaters "educate" you about Vista. It's been great for me and everyone I know!

    Is there any difficulty in updating to Vista Service Pack -1? Should I take the back up of the present Vista or can I directly upgrade to VSP-1? I do have 256 kbps internet connection ...how much time it would take to update to VSP-1.

    Uhm yeah update your software, are you stupid? SP1 really stabilizes Windows Vista operating system and secures it a helluva lot.
