Windows Vista SP1 Release Notes; [Jun. 21st, 2008|01:18 am]
Previous Entry Add to Memories Tell a Friend Next Entry
Been reading the Windows Vista SP1 Release Notes. The improvements are quite significant. Seems like it may fix a few of the minor annoyances, a lot of the performance problems, printing problems, file system problems, improve security even more, add improved and more stable drivers, and improve notebook battery life.

Check out the release notes summary here:

Two hidden warnings worth noting:
Users who did not opt-in to the Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) will be prompted again to join after installing SP1. The experience will remain the same and the default will continue to be opt-out.

The Windows Vista SP1 install process clears the user-specific data that is used by Windows to optimize performance, which may make the system feel less responsive immediately after install. As the customer uses their SP1 PC, the system will be retrained over the course of a few hours or days and will return to the previous level of responsiveness.
