Microsoft confirms Windows 7 SP1 RTM, released to OEMs today

[johnwillyums]

Thanks for your input Shawn. I didn't realise that it could be installed from within windows.
I was struggling to create an .iso from my download. I finally succeeded but then came up against the GRUB boot problem I mention above.
At the moment I'm ast work but I will attempt to install from within Windows using the stub exe when I get home tomorrow.
Thanks again, John

yeah Ex_Brit i was asking you

 

[Zen00]

Did my clean install and the SP installed right away, working alright, no changes so far.

 

[Mashed1316]

Nice to know that Zen00, i was going to try it but a voice in my head told me not to.. let me ask, do you have the optional updates in Windows Update after the SP1 installation?? (Windows Live Essentials 2011, .NET Framework 4.0 Profile Client, etc.)

 

[Zen00]

Yes I do, there's an optional update for Silverlight.

Did my clean install and the SP installed right away, working alright, no changes so far.

After the install of SP1, how many additional updates showed up to be installed?

What procedure did you use? Did you load Windows 7 and then go online for activation before loading SP1 or did you load Windows 7 and SP1 and then go online?

Dear friends,
I am a new entrant to the site and i am already very happy with "it's attitude"! Yes, every site has an attitude,right? Yours (now,ours) is downright cool! I humbly urge the Admin. to keep it that way. The reason is,if young blood and enthusiasm are to be encouraged, that's the way to go!

Ya,i do yap a bit,but that's only to keep the juices flowing and the threads interesting. Now coming to the Brasstacks, does anyone have any idea about the SIZE OF THE SP1 (sorry for the bold type )? If it is big (?>300MB), the slow internet users like many have to sit, pray and bite off their nails until the download is finished.Was it not the case with Win.XP SP2 and SP3?

Thanking you and with regards,
DR.Sreedhav.

PS: If the size and method of install. have already been dilated upon, then all's fine! Ihate these PS's!

These were the only updates installed when I installed SP1 RTM (?):



My only Silverlight update was a month ago:



But, then, I didn't do a clean install. I just uninstalled the SP1 RC and installed the SP1 RTM(?).

 

[acurasd]

Is there really such a thing as "final service pack" from microsoft LOL

 

[shinsekidoll]

how do you install these without 971033?

 

[mikedl]

how do you install these without 971033?

I dunno. That update was installed the same day I installed Win 7. Why haven't you installed update 971033?

 

[yowanvista]

how do you install these without 971033?

You can install SP1 without this update installed on your PC, it isn't even included in SP1
I have this update hidden since Feb2010

Not to get off-topic, yowanvista, but why not install kb971033? I've seen no issues with it except complaints from some on other forums who lost their illegal activation.

I did not install it because it don't simply want my PC to connect to MS servers although my OS is legally activated

Humm...let's say Wave1 version is 903Mb Approx, including 20 different languages...divided by number of languages included, it should be around 45,15Mb when i'll reach the Windows Update....in your native
