This has been news on Winfuture.de for the whole day now. SP1 final IS available for x64 users, more and more are downloading it. There are a few users who had trouble with the download, but most of them got it, it's the final version, and it's working without any trouble.

The only prerequisites seem to be installed KB937287 and KB938371 updates.

I've downloaded it myself, but stuck at the "press continue to start installation"-window, because I'm on RDP. Going go start it when I get home in 90 minutes :)

Edit: Oh, and no, no one knows why it's available. No feedback from Microsoft.

Hi all,

Yes it is true ... Nobody seems to know what's going on, or at least I don't.

I succesfully installed service pack 1 and I got to say the indeed fixed the file copy problem. But they still didn't fix the surround issue ... But hey this is what everybody was waiting for :-) So far so good ... Lets hope it stays that way!

I'm running a legal activated Windows Vista Business x64.

      Im in Ohio, and my VPN endpoint is in Boston. If that helps, it does happen both on and off the VPN. and again only in Edge.

      It is such a shame. I used to really respect Neowin's articles.

      So.... slower fixes and slower security updates are preferred? I mean, there is no goldilocks zone here until it can literally update without ever needing a restart, and even then I'm sure someone would complain.
