    Re: [2008] Service Pack 1 released

    Just bought a new computer online and received it 9 days ago. Ordered it without an OS. I've set it up for dual boot with XP and Vista Business. Installed Visual Studio 2008 Standard with Visual Basic only in both OSs. I successfully installed VS 2008 SP1 on XP but when attempting to install VS 2008 SP1 to Vista Business I get a Fatal error during installation message. Code given is 0x80070643.

    Tried install again but same error again. I have all the latest updates for Vista. No Firefox. Hardly any programs installed on computer now. I'll go do a search on this code. If anyone knows anything about this you can let me know.

    I just tried it again and it installed ok. The only thing I did differently this time is that I was still connected to the internet. I wouldn't think that that would have made any difference.

    That depends on what you actually downloaded. If you downloaded the bootstrapper then you need to be connected to the Internet so that it can download the actual service pack. How big was the file you downloaded? The full SP is hundreds of megabytes. The bootstrapper is less than 3. It's easy to tell which is which.

    I downloaded 800 MB or so ISO file from MS website. The download process is as slow as a snail. Installing it was also another painful experience... Did I download the wrong SP?

    There's only one SP1 for VS 2008 so if that's what you donwloaded then you downloaded the right thing. It's not a small patch.

    The package contains the service pack for VS2008, but also contains SP1 for the actual .NET framework 3.5.

    Chances are the download you did contains ALL versions of 3.5SP1 (x86, x64, IA64) so the size gets much larger.

    VS2008 SP1/.NET 3.5SP1 is being delivered via Microsoft's Automatic Updates, which is probably the quickest and easiest way to get just what you need.
