New vista sp1 version

i see no improvement, took almost an hour to install, lots of resets and the Copy bug remains. 45319days and 23hours.......

You sure you have all the updates installed?? On your desktop does it say Windows Vista(Tm) Evaluation copy. Build 6001

Because with the previous sp and this one I don't have that bug anymore and I did have it before the sp's were released.
 
I've never seen anything as bad as 45319days, it usually just took a while after/before the copying was done. Was this over a network or external drive drive, because that seems to have different issues.
 
Can someone please upload this to a local place?
Like using the UUNET FTP and then posting URL here for us VISTA users to grab and install.

Thanks!

PS: I have no INT access, only local.
 
Fix for slow network speeds with Vista:

Make the changes below to ensure efficient running of Windows Vista on any LAN:

Registry edit: (Please backup original registry before making any changes!)

The Multimedia Class Scheduler needs to be disabled, since as soon as a user makes use of a Media Player when utilising the network / internet, network traffic will be severely impacted.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Audiosrv\DependOnService remove MMCSS from the list; after rebooting the machine, disable the service in the Control Panel under the Services tab.

Further to this Microsoft Windows Vista’s TCP/IP auto-tuning should now also be disabled. (Microsoft TCP/IP stack supports Receive Window Auto-Tuning - it will not function efficiently. The TCP/IP stack monitors the connection and measures the current bandwidth delay for the connection and the application receive rate and adjusts the receive window size to optimum throughput.) Therefore do the following:

Create a shortcut on the desktop “CMD.exe” right click and run as Administrator. Type: "netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabled" (without quotes) and press enter.

To enable auto-tuning:
Type: "netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=normal" (without quotes) and press enter.

To view the current TCP settings:
Type: "netsh interface tcp show global" (without quotes) and press enter.

The only detrimental effect on the system would be an occasional crackling sound when a Media Player is used, to circumvent this set the Player to run in “real time” if required.

Since there isn't a standalone installer how do you propose we do that??
