SP1 for x64 is 743mb, and SP1 for x86 is 557mb SP1 for x86 (www.microsoft.com) SP1 for x64 (www.microsoft.com) SP2 for x86 (www.microsoft.com) I would install one of the free PDF readers Have uninstalled Adobe reader. I have both of those SP. will install them and see what happens. Question. Does SP1 have all the original updates included in it?	Colpol (444)
843623	2009-12-27 21:24:00	Well SP1 has the updates (from when Vista came out, till SP1 came out). Install that first, then reboot, then let it update. Then install SP2. All of the updates after SP2 are on the MS site. There are a LOT of them. You would have to check for updates, then click on the links to the updates, to download them. if you want them	Speedy Gonzales (78)
843624	2009-12-27 21:34:00	OK Speedy thank you for your patients. For a reloaded system it is very very very slow responding. Maybe need to redo it. The restore is very quick and if SP 1 has everything on it I can do it relativly quickly. I guess procedure would be Reinstall. Install SP1 Install SP2 Then run Auto update	Colpol (444)

Go to windows search / disable it. It can slow a system down. Right mouse on C:/properties. Untick the indexing option. This can take a while, let it finish. How much ram is in it? What CPU is in it? Yup, thats what I usually do, clean install, SP1, SP2, the rest of the updates	Speedy Gonzales (78)

843629	2009-12-27 22:10:00	Question. When reinstalling system then SP1 And SP2 is it done with BB unpluged? or should I disable Auto update at the strart until the SP's are installed?	Colpol (444)
843630	2009-12-27 22:15:00	Since its dual core, go to start/run type msconfig. Go to the boot tab / advanced tab, change number of processors to 2. Then reboot. It should make booting into vista faster. No you have to be online to install SP2, (since it installs 2 files from online), or it wont update to SP2.	Speedy Gonzales (78)

OK running much faster since turned off of Search and index. Tried the boot suggestion. Changed to 2 processors and it automaticily went to selective startup and did not load "startup" Reset to norma startup and it was back to 1 processor	Colpol (444)
