* -- Prior to, I just upgraded from the EVGA 680i motherboard to the 780i and still haven't reformatted my hard-drive or reinstalled the OS. I'm probably on less than optimal conditions so other people might have better/worse experiences. I had a driver conflict with a printer from the upgrade and SP1 resolved it. Although this was purely my laziness (the conflict) and not Microsoft or Vista's.]]>Mar 19th 2008 4:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/Mar 24th 2008 11:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/Mar 19th 2008 5:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/Mar 19th 2008 6:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/
That's not a new bug with SP1, just new to you. There's a fix for it here: http://directedge.us/node/44]]>Mar 19th 2008 7:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/Mar 19th 2008 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/
But everything now seems ok, and even a slight bit faster.

I saw some posts here about people not being able to download the SP1. I saw a response that said that you can only have the 4 language packs supported - THANKS!! I had installed other language packs, and when I saw this response, I uninstalled them - and SP1 became available.

To build on that, though, make sure that you have all compatable drivers, too.

no problems...
seems to work fine and bit better...]]>Mar 19th 2008 11:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/
SP1 has slowed my bootup time from under 30 seconds to well over 2 minutes.

Am I pissed? Yes. And guess what. It STILL doesnt come out of standby, or even turn the monitor back on when I open the lid (I have it set to do NOTHING when I close the lid...)

Well, I have given SP1 and Vista its chances. Time to upgrade back to XP for games. Someone should slap Bill Gates across the face.

Now I know why I rarely use my laptop. Back to Fedora I go...]]>Mar 20th 2008 4:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/Mar 24th 2008 7:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/

haven't had a chance to use my laptop with vista much since yesterday (i'm on my 3e right now) but it actually seemed somewhat quicker. however, that could be more because of the 4gigz of ram than software fixes. i have no way of knowing either way though.]]>Mar 19th 2008 4:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/http://www.engadget.com/2008/03/19/some-vista-sp1-early-adopters-reporting-problems-how-about-you/
