I had one blue screen after SP1 but all is fine now
I`ve seen something about a new kb that went out that would complain unless another kb was installed previously. Not sure if it`s still there for auto update now.
Sorry I didn`t take much notice of the numbers at the time >.<
Since SP1, I`m gonna try the old trick of updating SP to SP, nothing in between.
OEM SP1 is available for download from m$`s oem-thing. It`s free u just gotta sign in/up.
