I was going to post this thread last night as i watched my computers sloth-like install of vista sp1. I started the install at around 4:30 and it finished around 9:30...

and i'm running a pretty fast computer so thats just a little slow. I didn't get a chance to look at any benefits or fixes because all I did once it was up was fix my display settings that it changed and then went to bed.

If you're going to install this service pack, do it when you goto bed. Goodluck.
