windows 7 service pack 1 has gone RTM

[chucky2]

Does anyone know if I download the full version (not just the SP) of Ultimate, can I also use a Home Premium key with that? Or, must one definitely have the Home Premium iso for their Home Premium key?

you have to use the key for each version.

Damn! 🙁 Thanks....

The images are universal except for a configuration file "ei.cfg" which controls the default installation. This can be altered to any version or disabled to allow selection by menu.

Anyone know if there is a way to install this on a slipstreamed version of W7? I get an error saying I don't have the right components when I try to install it. I don't want to reformat just for the SP if I don't have to.

doubtful, you more than likely will have to make new image and just add the service pack. how did you slipstream your image? RT7lite?

pays to use the integrated image instead of slipstreaming it appears

You might want to reread the link.

"Anyone who installed a new copy of Windows 7 SP1 using an official integrated ISO (and it looks like homemade slipstreamed integrated ISOs are okay, too)."

hmm, good catch.

So I tried to install the Auto Update version lastnight and it said Failed part way through the install. Is there anyway to start it back up? I noticed it reset WMP to its "First Run" phase, I dunno what else it touched. :/

Thanks! That utility was the ticket, worked perfectly!
