When you go to do all of this, you finally get to the automatic update part to get the SP1 and at about 13% download you get an error. Do yourself a favor before installing, google this error: 80073712
I realy hope they fix this before putting out the official SP1 as it looks like the same error people have been having for 3 months and it's still not working today.
The only fix I've seen people who were able to install the SP1 is to do a fresh install of Vista. Then run the SP1, then it works. Tell that to all of us who bought a new Vista computer January of 07 and have since installed 160 gigs of programs! Good luck.
