Vista Service Pack 1 isn't actually SP1


It appears that Microsoft's woes with Vista aren't quite over yet. According to the company's official Windows Vista blog, a bug in the SP1 update is the latest in a mounting load of blunders.

A number of users reported problems resulting from the service pack prerequisite KB937287. After receiving reports of the error, Nick White, Microsoft's Product Manager, quickly responded by notifying customers that a decision has been made to "temporarily suspend automatic distribution of the update to avoid further customer impact while we investigate possible causes." Microsoft says that only a small number of users has been effected and that the company is presently working to crack the problem and put the update back online as soon as possible.

Also, if your Vista PC have installed SP1, makesure you have done all the critical Windows Updates upto late June's update. Apparently there are two major critical updates relating to Windows stability and performance issues.
