It looks like Microsoft has posted the final Vista SP1 bits to their OEM site which is accessible to anyone that registers. The file is a 1.13GB .img which combines the 32-bit and 64-bit update executables into one image:
Download Windows Vista SP1 here. The download contains Window Vista SP1 for five languages: English, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish. Note Additional languages will be available soon. Once you download the Windows Vista SP1 package, you will need to extract the appropriate .exe file for the language you wish to install. |

If you are signed up for Microsoft Connect, use it to download the RTM .iso image. The download from Connect is MUCH faster and takes less than one hour. This post was edited by bobsireno on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 at 09:23. |

Wolfman69: Check the Downloads available for your participation on Connect. If you beta tested Vista SP1 or Server 2008 the download should be available to you. Connect doesn't send out e-mail for each available download. It's best to check the site occasionally. This post was edited by bobsireno on Tuesday, February 12, 2008 at 11:11. |

| bobsireno: That would explain why I don't see a link anywhere to download the service pack LOL I didn't beta test Vista SP1 or Server 2008 :) |

I haven't burnt the DVD yet, but I got it here:
http://www.majorgeeks.com/Microsoft_Vista_Service_Pack_1_d5849.html The download link is an official microsoft download link. It's the Automation kit for OEM's, which is supposed to have both versions. Downloaded at over 2MB/Sec, was done before I knew it! What I REALLY want is the fully integrated replacement Vista Install CD that will (eventually, maybe, possibly) show up on TechNet. TL |

I'm sure they are in there somewhere, but I'll be damned if I can find them.

| TL: The .iso DVD file that the above link leads to is what you want. MS now has it posted on their OEM Parter site also. You may have to wait until their servers cool off a bit trafficwise. |

| Note that the RTM download through Windows Update shows up as SP1 RC1 on the update list and when downloading, but on Windows System Information is correctly shown as Service Pack 1. |

I got it, but where the hell are the service packs?
