Windows Vista Service Pack 1Windows Vista (pronounced /ˈvɪstə/) is a line of operating systems developed by Microsoft for use on personal computers, including home and business desktops, laptops, Tablet PCs, and media centers. Prior to its announcement on July 22, 2005, Windows Vista was known by its codename "Longhorn".[1] Development was completed on November 8, 2006; over the following three months it was released in stages to computer hardware and software manufacturers, business customers, and retail channels. On January 30, 2007, it was released worldwide to the general public,[2] and was made available for purchase and downloading from Microsoft's web site.[3] The release of Windows Vista comes more than five years after the introduction of its predecessor, Windows XP, to date the longest elapsed time between successive releases of Microsoft Windows.
Microsoft occasionally releases service packs for its Windows operating systems to fix problems and add features. Windows Vista Service Pack 1 (SP1) was released on February 4, 2008 alongside Windows Server 2008 to OEM partners after a five-month beta test period. MSDN subscribers were able to download SP1 on February 15th, 2008. Service Pack 1 will be available to current Windows Vista users mid-March. [43] [44] [45] A whitepaper published by Microsoft near the end of August 2007 outlined the scope and intent of the service pack, identifying three major areas of improvement: reliability and performance, administration experience, and support for newer hardware and standards. One area of particular note is performance. Areas of improvement include file copy operations, hibernation, logging off on domain-joined machines, Javascript parsing in Internet Explorer, network file share browsing,[44] Windows Explorer ZIP file handling,[46] and Windows Disk Defragmenter.[47] The ability to choose individual drives to defragment is being reintroduced as well.[44] Download Links http://rapidshare.com/files/93084530/Windows6.0-KB936330-wave0-X86.part1.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/93091124/Windows6.0-KB936330-wave0-X86.part2.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/93165411/Windows6.0-KB936330-wave0-X86.part3.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/93192404/Windows6.0-KB936330-wave0-X86.part4.rar http://rapidshare.com/files/93199112/Windows6.0-KB936330-wave0-X86.part5.rar No Password |
