Windows Vista Service Pack 1 RTM x86 leaked

[archish]

Vista at lease to me feels much snappier.

glad to know that its better...cant wait for official release :)

It will...but you just need new patched files :D

Thank you for the files they work very well.

Thanx! But I have problems getting it to work on 64 bit. Any instructions?.. as I belive it is a bit different than patching 32 bit.

Try the 64-bit ones? Haha, sorry wasn't meant to be a smart remark...

[Robbie Khan Reviews]

Yeah for 64bit you need to give yourself owner rights and full permissions over the dll files :p or just use "take control" linked in that link!

What I mean is that there is a uxtheme.dll inside the sysWOW64 folder as well as in System32 folder. And the size differs from the one in System32. Hence my question.

[Robbie Khan Reviews]

Ah not too sure then as I'm on 32bit :/

[cwpenner]

Yea sorry, I'm on 32 bit too, and those worked fine :/

Neowin posted a RegHack on the frontpage. ;) I assume his link would be fine.

All I can see is reg hacks to what seem to be beta builds :(

Please google Windows Vista SP1 Refresh 2 Reg ...4 letter word that begins with h...

RC1 Refresh 2 is the same as RTM, don't listen to what anyone else says about it, it was confirmed by MS.

If interested....some of the torrent sites have slipstreamed sp1 into vista. I took my LEGAL

product ID, wiped out a backup laptop drive, installed it and activated it with no problem.

Personally, when a SP comes out, I prefer to wipe and install with the SP slipstreamed.

[nothin2seehere]

Thanks Xinary.

[George P Global Moderator]

So, now that it's RTMd for a week or so, anyone seen or done any benchmarks yet?

[lsquare]

I'm just wondering if anyone of you guys been able to slipstream SP1 into Vista?

Also, can anyone with access to MSDN let me know if Microsoft is making available of Vista with SP1 slipstreamed into the image?

[L3thal Veteran]

I have seen the 32-bit version slipstreamed but I cannot find the same for the 64-bit version (which I need).

[Mathachew Veteran]

Finally got my hands on the x64 version and have it installed. I've noticed a little more pep in the system. I tested copying a file, which was SP1 x64 and 726mb. It took about 30 seconds to copy, yay!

[MrBear5587]

For those that are holding off to download the file from Microsoft, it's available on their OEM site. It's a DVD image that contains the standalone installers for SP1 both x86 and x64.

Link is here: http://oem.microsoft.com/downloads/VistaSP...frmcsp0_dvd.img

However, the download speeds are horrific. I'm just about managing 12KB/s. Download does take a while to get going.

Use of a download manager is highly recommended.

Has anyone got official md5hash for the following:

6001.18000.080118-1840_x86fre_Client_en-us-FRMCFRE_EN_DVD.iso

6001.18000.080118-1840_amd64fre_Client_en-us-FRMCXFRE_EN_DVD.iso

Thanks.

[MrBear5587]

There appears to be 2 versions of the standalone installers, and I'm not sure which one is the offical..

The first is the ones that appears days ago that people were downloading from different mirrors.

The MD5s were:

X86: d597866e93bc8f80ecca234c4e9ce5a2

X64: 983308426e8ee7649f53b41f4e5c42d4

However, I downloaded the ISO that contains both of the files, as shown here:

The installers on this disc, have different timestamps and MD5's.

If we compare the 2 x64 installers:

Can anyone shed any light on to which installer is the one to use?

[robbin]

My guess would be is that the one from MS OEM is the right one, that is the .img file containing both versions.

[Sethos]

Meh, really wanna get a hold of SP 1 X64 - Just can't find it anywhere :(

[SYBINX]

When will people learn, DON'T DOWNLOAD LEADKED FILES I would not have installed it to be honest but people will jump into the fire and get burned.

Could you check the actual installers? Have a look inside the actual exe and see what the time stamps etc are inside?

[magik]

I would go with the ones from the .img. I'm downloading it right now via the torrent I posted yesterday, should be done soon (I turned it off overnight).
