Any possible side effects from installing Vista64 SP1?

[ZombieRitual]

Hey guys. I still haven't upgraded my Vista 64 install to SP1 because of the problems I read on dailytech. Now that some time has passed and it sounded like some were fixed, are there still any possible side effects from installing the SP1 patch? I primarly browse the web, play WoW, and watch movies/tv shows I've downloaded. Thanks!

I'm using Vista Ultimate 64 SP1. No issues. Come on in, the waters warm

No issues with SP1 slipstreamed.

So no problems installing SP1 to 64 bit Vista Home Premium?

SP1 working great on both my Vista x86 and Vista x64 Home Premium computers.

I recommend you install it,performance boost and bug fixes so its worth it.

The only side effect I have run across is my network file transfers went from 1MB\sec to 55MB\sec. I can live with that

I never had and problems with the final SP1, or even the betas. I'm sure 99.9% of people have no problems, it just the 1% that do make a big fuss about it.

I went from 3GB RAM to 32GB when SP1 installed, odd bug, not sure where it came from.

No problems with any SP1 and I installed betas and RCs and uninstalled them before going final on the same Vista install with no issues whatsoever.

No problems here on Business 64. With the sheer number of people running Windows, there will always be a very small minority of people who have problems with any patch or update MS produces.

Side effects of installing Vista??


Loss of hearing from endless lecturing. Paranoia derived from Run~by Fruitings made against you by the XP faction. The occasional "Burning Bag" on the doorstep. And the latest tactic is slipping XP-related pamphlets into Missionary handouts... :shocked:

100% - 99.9% =/= 1%

I lost an arm after installing SP1, but that's all.
