Windows 7 Service Pack 1

[DavidR]

I'm just downloading them right now, 3+1 (61.8MB) for win7 starter. whilsit the download started out quite quick it stalled at 31% for some considerable time. Now stalled at 35%

I guess the windows update servers are red hot and under heavy load right now as 61.8MB on my fast broadband would normally be under a minute, feels like back when I was on dial-up (god forbid trying 61.8MB on dial-up).

Still stalled at 35%

Oh boy, same here (that's when I give up and rebooted!

It has finally finished almost an hour when my broadband downloads are very fast.

I have literally just rebooted on my netbook and it is now going through the Stage 1 of 2 - Configuring Service Pack. That isn't particularly fast, but on the netbook 2GB DDR3 RAM Atom n550 1.5Ghz dual core, not much of a surprise there.

Now we are seemingly back on the same stage 1 of 2 after what I thought was windows just about to start, sloooooooow.

Wow, what a palaver (never had this hassle with other SP updates) finally started into my normal windows boot and all appears to be running as it should, avast 6.0.992, MBAM Pro, Outpost Firewall Pro.

Everything is fine except Firefox 4 beta 11...It cannot be scrolled up or down using the mouse...

@David: when I rebooted in 30% frozen stage, I started to download setup manually, but after a few min windows updater said that update (service pack) is downloaded ans ready to install, I installed SP using windows updater and it only took less than 10 min, never said stage 1 or 2, just said it on percentage (1% 2%....) during shutdown and boot-up. (you have DDR3 RAM and I've 2GB DDR2, also my hard is 4200RPM so I could expect a longer setup than you have on your netbook, only my CPU is slightly faster T7200)

I don't know if this is anything to do with having win7 starter (32bit) OS a slightly different. But finally all done and dusted other than being painfully slow.

No problems for me with the latest v6 and win 7 sp1.

Mine started download OK and stuck at 19% I gave up after about 40 min and went with the full version I have for slipstream. Everything seems to work.

Worked fine for me with W7 Home Premium 64 bit. 3 other updates (failed) must have been superceded, as others have mentioned, and I also had the Media Player config request. avast! free was running throughout. Downloaded and installed about 90mb very quickly. No problem with shut down or reboot at all.

Well I tried 2 times and both failed with E_FAIL 0x80004005 :'(
Both times I try to install SP1 with one other updates via Windows Update.

Well, I tried to update, Comodo (in Training mode) gave me problem (caused update progress freeze and also comodo itself get a high-cpu usage. so I uninstalled comodo (I guess forever) and stick my to Security suite.
after uninstall comodo, windows update installed service pack (60MB) easily and quickly with no problem

I'll try to uninstall CIS. So far install processes failed at 99% after several reboot so I don't know this is related to CIS or not, but it seems this is the time to ditch Comodo...
