Microsoft Office 2010 SP1 Released

for some strange reason, i got a 78F error the first time i tried to update, but the second one went smoothly.

thanks for the slipstreaming link G1LLY - i keep meaning to do a clean install of 7 sp1, i may as well clean install office too - when i find the time, or urgent need!

Tried 4 times to install it now..twice via windows update and twice from the downloaded file.
Fails everytime.
When from windows update, if fails with a meaningless 78F error.
When installed from downloaded file it just says it failed to install...even less informative.

I've even tried installing straight after a reboot with virus checker turned off and run as admin and it still fails.
Maybe a more helpful error message microsoft??

Can't install SP!. Installation progress bar finalizes and "failed to install" message appears. Tried from two different sources. Dl'd .exe file and via Win 7 update.

Tried with firewall and AV off. Ran Fixit on Installer. Tried from elevated prompt. Tried from safe mode. Tweaked some group policy settings hoping to loosen up security (no go). Updater works with everything else.

I see the link for making a slipstream disk. I could try that. That means a complete uninstall and reinstall. What is the chance of technet putting up an iso with sp1 in it for dl?

Another option for me would be to unload professional and load the standard version and then add Access and One Note and Outlook. I am not sure if that would decrease the footprint or not.

How about a little advice?

Having the same issue. Win 7 x64 64 bit office 2010 install cannot get it to install workied fine on my laptop with the same OS and Office version. Please help.
