Microsoft pulls Vista SP1 update

Posted on February 21, 2008

Not SP1 itself, which has a mass-market date for mid-March, but is available now. What they pulled is a “prerequisite piece of software” they install prior to SP1 depending on which of the ‘31 flavors’ of Vista you ‘own’.

Some customers in ‘unique circumstances’ (undefined by MSFT), may have a problem (like corrupted installs).

We have a small initial rollout in our company of Vista anyway but our SP1 updates have gone OK except the file is about 1.3GB in size and the update takes a smashing 45 minutes on a 2.8GHz single-core box.
