Can someone Please help?

[Picker325]

I have been trying to get SP1 to download so that i can upgrade other things
on my computer. but for some reason it will not download at all. I have been
able to get everything else to download and install perfectly, but this one
thing will not install. what am i doing wrong or should i be doing to get
this to install? i have tried everything and microsoft isn't any help at all
with this problem. hopefully someone will reply to this post since no one did
to the last one i posted. thanks for any anticipated help that can be given.

Start by being more specific about your system and what
error codes you might be getting. Since you give absolutely
no idea about what exactly is happening, no one can give you
any suggestions as to what you might do to correct it.

Hi, Picker325.

Like Bobby said, we can't help much if we don't even know if you are running
WinXP or Vista or something else.

THIS group is specifically for 64-bit versions of Windows. Are you running
WinXP x64 or Vista x64?

My guess is that you are running 32-bit Vista and that you would be much
better off in a Vista-specific newsgroup, such as
microsoft.public.windows.vista.general.

When you post there, be sure to tell them more than you've told us about
your computer and HOW you've tried to download SP1.

Hi,
Here you have the link for downloading the standalone package of Vista x64
SP1.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...4B-32B2-41CC-BD8B-D71EDA5EC07C&displaylang=en
Download it to your hard disk and then execute it.
