Only after the release of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1), users are complaining about the problem that came with the Windows Vista SP1. Some user said that Windows Vista SP1 gave him bluescreen on the third part of the update after he downloaded Windows Vista SP1 through Windows update.
Other problems reported is that after he installed Windows Vista SP1, his computer seems to be slower than usual, making him to switch back to Windows Vista without SP1.
Windows Vista SP1 can be downloaded free from Windows update website, and is available in five languages, which is English, French, German, Japanese and Spanish. Microsoft was quoted claiming that Windows Vista SP1 contains numerous features designed to enhance the operating system’s speed, performance, and stability. Among other things, it offers a patch that will allow users to run the BitLocker encryption tool on multiple hard drives. It also improves the speed at which the OS wakes up from hibernate mode.
Windows Vista SP1 will also remove from Vista the so-called Kill Switch, which is a feature that deactivated key components of the Operating System if Microsoft detected users were not running a properly licensed copy of Vista.
Good thing though, as this Kill Switch feature was plagued by false alarms that flagged thousands of legitimate Vista users as software pirates.
