- Updating Vista to SP1. Wish me luck. I feel I’m going to need it.
- Vista SP1 Dialog: “The installation might take an hour or more. Your computer will restart several times during installation.”
- Vista SP1 is now back to Stage 1/3. Goofy. 9% complete. “Do not turn off your computer.” (or you will die.)
- Vista SP1 Stage 1/3 now at 65%.
- Vista SP1 Stage 1 done. Now Stage 2/3 at 3%.
- Vista SP1 update made it through stage 2/3. Had a 30 second moment where everything was just black and freaked me out. But chugging along.
- Vista SP1 Stage 2 done. Onto Stage 3. 0% complete. Seems smooth so far, except a few extended black screens.
- Vista SP1 Stage 3 flew by, done. Login prompt!
- Now happily on Vista SP1. Seem to have passed through the dark side of the moon and am now safe again.
