Thanks for the links. Is there any documents that lists the changes
in this gigantic service pack? The MSDN article linked to on the
download page is characteristically "not available"...

Yes, it's unfortunate that they make this SP public before the KB article is
even available. Also note that the download page mentions Vista as a target
platform, however, it fails to install on Vista 64 bit. Probably the KB will
tell us that Vista (64?) is currently not supported.

Don't hurry, you will need to be patient when applyng the SP1, take a look
at the first dialog, <..may take several minutes to several hours...> ain't
no joke :-).

Willy.

Also (and it does mention this somewhere on the site):

*** UNINSTALL the web application projects add-on if you have it...

Otherwise it will spend an age churning, and *then* tell you to remove
it (and close itself). Of course, it will still take a few hours to
install (quite literally, depending on spec.)...

It installs correctly on Vista 32 bit (in the second try), but brings
up a pre-start message that a Vista SP is necessary, even though this
won't be available for another 2 months. VS runs fine if you click OK
and don't bother with it.

Thanks, I know it installs on Vista 32 and I know that we will need an "update for V2005 SP1
for Vista" which will be released Q1 2007. but I need SP1 it on Vista 64, but here the
install fails telling me something like ....no VS2005 found or that the target is
incompatible with SP1... which is BS really, there is only one version of VS2005 Team
Editon, exactly the same as installed on Vista32 or XP and there is only one version of SP1
TE.
No big deal however, there are more issues than that when developing on a 64 bit OS, that's
why I'm using the latest Windows SDK tools (64 bit) and use VS2005 only as an editor on
Vista64.

Willy.

the modal dialogue is busy crap?

ROFL

Does anyone know if SP1 is worth it? I was waiting forever for the
fixes to Emacs-mode editing, so I jumped on the SP1 beta. I regret
that. No fixes, and it runs very slow. (Click two controls and wait
for the 'make same size' icon to get enabled... stuff like that).

Is SP1 a similar disaster? I doubt that they've fixed any Emacs bugs.
