Hey

Recently have been trying to install SP1 for vista (32) and am having some serious problems. When it tries to install it lags at 0%(1/3) and then eventually just goes 100%(3/3) and begins shutdown/startup. Microsoft's help thought that the scanner they provide would help but it doesn't show up on the downloads so I did it manually and the scanner freezes half way through. Tried manually installing SP1 (downloading the file and opening it) but same problem. I am getting crashes that vista keeps saying SP1 fixes so its starting to do my head in. What are my options here?

Thanks in advance

slipstream the sp1 into your vista disk with vlite and then run an upgrade install from within windows

you could always just download from microsoft.com and use the standalone innstaller instead of using windows update

Yeah I have tried doing that and the installation doesn't work.

edit*dai that slipstream has just confused me... I'm not sure how to use it.

you just need your windows disk and a blank one
the sp location
then it is virtually mouse clicks following the instructions on screen
