1. Ensure that you are connected to the Internet.
2. Run the script given to you by Microsoft.
3. If your computer is set to automatically install updates, then when prompted, follow the instructions to install SP1. Or, to initiate the installation, follow steps 4-7.
Note
Because of the prerequisite updates, if you do not initiate the installation, it may take more than 5 days before you are prompted to install SP1 (1 day for each prerequisites, and 1 or more days to begin the download of SP1).
4. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Windows Update, and then click Check for Updates. The following updates may be offered one at a time if they are not already installed:
KB937287 (may require a restart before installing)
KB935509 (only for Windows Vista Enterprise and Windows Vista Ultimate computers that are running BitLocker, and it requires a restart.)
KB938371 (requires a restart)
Repeat this step until you have installed each of these prerequisite updates.
5. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Windows Update, and then click Check for Updates. A list of updates is displayed (one of which is KB936330).
6. Select the KB936330 update, which is SP1. Do not select any other updates, and then click Install.
7. Setup will proceed after the computer is restarted. During this second phase of installation, you will be prevented from logging on while the service pack is installed. The installer will automatically restart the computer a few times during this phase.
Caution
Do not restart the computer or turn the power off, even if the computer stays in an unknown state for a long time. If you do, the computer may be in an unbootable state.
8. Setup is complete when you are presented with the Windows logon prompt. At this time, you can log on to the computer and you will receive a final dialog box which will indicate whether the upgrade was successful.
Note
To confirm SP1 is installed, right click on My Computer and click Properties. If the installation was successful, you will find a reference to the service pack in the Windows Edition section.
