Download Windows 7 SP1 RTM Build 7601.17514.101119-1850 via MSDN and TechNet Today

UPDATE: Windows 7 SP1 RTM and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1 RTM are available via MSDN and TechNet.

Later today, Windows 7 Service Pack 1 RTM Build 7601.17514.101119-1850 will become available for download to subscribers of Microsoft’s developer and IT professional portals.

I´ve just checked both MSDN and TechNet before starting to write this article, and at this point in time the Windows 7 SP1 downloads have not yet gone live on either of the two sites.

I downloaded the sp1 (all 1.9gigs) and updated my x64. Alll went well and I have had no problems, so far.
I have a technet plus sub but this morning it was too busy and all downloads failed due to network downloads
over loading their servers. I also downloaded the 64bit w/sp1 which came to 3.1gigs of .iso

MSDN and Technet subscribers always receive the downloads earlier than the rest of us since they pay for earlier and near-unlimited access to Microsoft's products.

Because members pay hefty fees to get things before everyone else. It's not just service packs but all kinds of stuff including just about every OS that has been in existence, applications, training stuff, technical articles, etc.

There are various membership levels, each offering different access.

Mine started when I became a Microsoft MVP and I decided to continue paying for it annually after that expired.

22 Feb is the regular release date for everyone for this SP.

That's bizarre that their servers should be swamped today, when I would have thought that probably would have happened yesterday, the first day, but everything seemed normal then.

Very weird...!!

Those who have paid-for technet subscriptions always get first choice. The little people have to wait until 22 Feb...

We pay for that right....but the point is, since techNet is supposed to be for IT Professionals, we get our hands on the software first, so we can test it out and are ready to instal or not install it when it becomes live for the world. I plan to load up two test systems today and tomorrow with SP1 and make sure it doesn't break anything my users will be doing.

I don't mean this as a threadjack, but I'm trying to find the link to the tuorial we have here that I remember using to make a combined flash drive (or disc image) of x86 and x64 at once. It's been working flawlessly for me on a current flash drive, but I want to redo the drives now that i have the new SP1 integrated .isos.
