I received the standard "new updates available" notification in the taskbar
and saw that it was for SP1. I started the download process, then received
a message that I would first need to uninstall the "original" SP1 that had
been installed. There was also a link to information. When I checked that
information, it was page after page of links. Frankly, I don't know enough
to decipher all that information, and I am now leery of getting into a
process that I might not be able to complete. It is ridiculous for MS to
come up with "updates" that require half an hour of reading and still don't
know what some of it is saying. I opted to cancel the uninstall and then
use System Restore to revert to what I already had.
Is anyone familiar enough with the "new" SP1 to know if it is really a major
upgrade, and can it cause problems that are difficult to offset ("difficult"
for someone who definitely is not a techie)?
I am using a Dell 530 desktop computer and Vista Home Premium (full version,
not OEM).
Thanks,
