Title: Vista SP1 available Post by: edward on March 18, 2008, 08:08:38 pm Peter, it looks like Vista SP1 is available for download. I have heard rumours about audio sounding better with this release, but I don't want to be a guinea pig. Would you be willing to download it and give us your impressions. ;)

Working hard on the "preprocessing" thing (as well as your pops and things), and I don't think SP1 should preveil. But within the week I should be able to. Peter Title: Re: Vista SP1 available Post by: SeVeReD on March 18, 2008, 08:24:10 pm I'm going for it. I don't have anything but XXHE on the laptop. If I have to, I'll reinstall Vista if it doesn't work well.
Title: Re: Vista SP1 available Post by: Joaquin on March 18, 2008, 10:46:38 pm I installed sp1 and I can confirm that u6 works great and it sound great! in my view, u6 sounds the best in demo mode.. :)

No surprises No SQ changes (I haven't noticed any) Title: Re: Vista SP1 available Post by: SeVeReD on March 19, 2008, 04:48:03 am I ran that program posted here... http://www.phasure.com/index.php?topic=349.0 ... Right before sp1 and just did remember now to do it again. Before SP1 I was getting an occasional red spike and more frequent orange. Now! I get low greens and an occasionally orange. SP1 Vista ... yea?!
Title: Re: Vista SP1 available Post by: JohanZ on March 19, 2008, 10:09:55 am Quote it looks like Vista SP1 is available for download Windows Vista Service Pack 1 Five Language Standalone version can be installed on systems with any of the following language versions: English (US), French, German, Japanese, or Spanish (Traditional). Still waiting! Title: Re: Vista SP1 available Post by: PeterSt on March 19, 2008, 10:21:04 am Ah ! That saves me a download. In fact I knew that, but forgot about it. Indeed, en e.g. english version won't install upon a dutch (etc.).
Btw, what I hope most to be solved : a. The kind of random behaviour at falling asleep, followed by a rather normal boot at wakeup; b. The sometimes ridiculeous harddisk access without apparent reason (lsass but can be caused by other things as well (not that I know which)); c. The stupid 30 sec. wait time at creating / renaming directories (which actually is not true, because the actual job is done immediately). Btw, not everybody experiences this, and I too didn't have this for the first six months (never installed any patches). Title: Re: Vista SP1 available Post by: Joaquin on March 19, 2008, 07:43:48 pm I recommend you upgrade to sp1 whenever possible as this patch, really makes vista faster and they have fix alot of stuff. copying files from network shares is definitely improved. network seems smoother.. overall, Vista is smoother now.. This is what vista should of have been since the beginning...

This is what vista should of have been since the beginning... Besides the network fix (which was longtime due!) I didnt notice any improvement on my two systems. The lower-end was updated 3 weeks ago when the sp1 was not on windowsupdate yet. The higher end machine today, but it's 64 bit so no xx for it. |
