Windows 7 Service Pack 1 -- does it work? - k0ala - 02-23-2011

My rig has been working pretty great up till now. I see that my computer has downloaded Service Pack 1. Has anyone else updated it? What were your results?

I updated, and it worked on both my computer and laptop. I'm not sure what else to say about it.

It works.  It even seems to have activated my copy of windows 7 after maybe 9 months of it refusing to do so.

Working fine here.  Not really noticing any improvements or drawbacks.

Some brief notes from microsoft on it... nothing to much for everyday users. Takes 5-20 min to do install since restart is required.

They don't introduce anything immensely huge or new in SP's, they're just a update that combines all prior updates into one, maybe adding a few little features in that would normally be a simple little KB###### update. This time it was printing from the XPS Viewer, a function they put in for explorer folders that was there in every version of Windows up to 7 but they took out for some reason, and an update for HDMI audio so it doesn't crash under certain circumstances.

I ran the update and restarted, looks just the same really. Thanks for helping ease my paranoia, guys.

It only looks different when you aren't paying attention.
