Windows Vista SP1 RC released to public

Tip: Click here to update all your PC's outdated driversWindows Vista Service Pack 1 RC is now available through Windows Update. Experience the WU based Vista SP1 installation by following 4 simple steps. Windows Vista SP1 RC distributed through Windows Update will be applicable to Windows Vista machines that are running on any of the 36 languages supported by Vista RTM.
If you already installed the Service Pack to your machine by using the standalone package, you must uninstall before you scan Windows Update for Windows Vista SP1.
Systems running on Windows Vista RTM require as many as three updates before SP1 can be installed. These updates are permanent to your Windows Vista systems. Windows Update will detect your system configuration and offer the prerequisite packages that are applicable to your system.
On Vista RTM:
1. Download the command (.cmd.remove) script to your machine, rename it by removing deleting ".remove" at the end of the file name. Run the newly named script on an elevated prompt.
• To run the script on elevated prompt, after you download the script, right click on the file and select “Run as administrator” option.
• The script sets a registry key on your system. The registry key is required for WU server to recognize your machine as a valid target for Vista SP1.
• After running the script, Windows Update automatic updates would normally automatically update your machine each night for the next several days with the prerequisites and then offer the Service Pack. However if you would like to install SP1 quicker you can manually do the next few steps to speed up the process.
2. Install all pending “Important” updates and reboot. You may have to do this several times to get fully up to date.
• Check for updates on Windows Update. Go to Control Panel à System and Maintenance à Windows Update and check for updates by clicking on “Check for Updates” in the top left of the task pane.
• You will be offered all previously released Windows Vista updates that you may not have installed on your system. Install all applicable updates. If you have a clean install of RTM, there might be quite a few updates to install. You may need to do this a couple of times to get fully up to date. At some point Update for Windows (KB935509) will be in this list. This is the first pre-requisite install. Reboot your machine when prompted.
• If you see Ultimate Extras, you can hide them by right-clicking and hiding. Simply unchecking them will not let the remaining updates show up. Please install all of the remaining “important” updates.
• If you reboot and rescan right away, at times you may not see all updates right away. Wait 10 minutes and scan again.
To reduce the number of reboots required to install Windows Vista Service Pack 1, the prerequisite packages will be released to Windows Vista customers through WU prior to the release of Windows Vista Service Pack 1. These prerequisite packages will be coupled with other updates that are applicable to Windows Vista RTM systems and require a reboot. Consequently, the systems that are getting updates through automatic updates will already have prerequisites installed at the time of the SP1 release and be directly offered SP1 through WU.

you a**holes! i've installed sp1 now and the date of expire is: 16-10-2008.
if i
uninstall it what can be happen?
i have vista 64 and loader crack and no other betas installed and update work fine. i
have used vista much before so i don't know how improved it is.
installed the sp1 from the ms site and my legit vista business now runs a dam site better
than ot ever has! the copy speed issue appears sorted, there is a feeling of slickness now
when moving around the screen etc... heck this is what should have been in place during
the initial release!
is this the same rc v668 that was released some days ago
it doesn't kill vista loader. also, it runs much better.
installed on a legit...ish version of ultimate 32bit no expiry date with winver.......
i'll try it on 64 bit later and let you know....... mind you... not seen any great
improvements !!!!
service pack 1, v.658!!! and service pack 1, v.668!!! have the same number (kb936330)
sorry my mistake! now i have service pack 1, v.668 with no exp. date!!!! and no water
marks!!! and this did not kill paradox oem or boot loader cracks!!! i’ve tried them both
(paradox oem crack on my laptop x86! works!!! :-) and boot loader on my desktop x64!
works!!! :-) just once again sorry for the miss leading info earlier
why did microsoft use the same number twice (kb936330)?????
how do u remove watermark in 64bit version?
james i hade the same problem with the sp1 v.658 x64 but now i have v.668 x64 witch is
the new sp1 and it does not have a problem with the watermark! well at least it has not
shown up on mine yet. and it seems that the watermark remover dose not work on x64 as it
does on x86 don’t kwon why? i’ve tried, but still had the watermark on my x64 version pc
but not on my x86 pc but like i said try this new sp1 and see if it takes away the
watermark.
p.s. don’t forget to uninstall the old version of sp1 first!
