POLL: Does Vista SP1 work on your Shift?

---

Ok,

So a while ago I installed SP1 on my Shift, but I was having some issues with it and at the time I didn't have the time to attempt to resolve them so I rolled it back out again.

So, now that I've more time again, I'm thinking about giving it another go but beforehand I'd like to see what the user communities experience is.

If you had problems with SP1, but eventually overcame them, please post what you did here, so that we can collate together everything for an SP1 advice thread!

Regards,

Dave

I voted 'Other'.
I haven't tried installing it yet, after seeing many reported problems. My Shift works well now, so I'll wait for developments.

Sticky?

Hi,

maybe you should do this as a sticky, as it slowly rolls out of sight, although I think it is quite interesting to know the experiences of others.

S.

I installed SP1, reinstalled the network and the control centre. I had just one issue - the SIM data connection kept bombing out in Vista. I couldn't find a solution for this, and found it unbearable, so I reverted back to SP1.
I'm keen on installing SP1 for the second time just to see if the second installation manages not to have the problem...

i've installed sp1 rc2 (i think) because in italian sp1 is out from 2 days.
and everything work very good.
shift goes more stable no kind of issue. didn't reinstall control center or other driver.

when 2 days ago official sp1 was released. i've uninstalled rc2. used shift withouth kind of sp, and work very slowly, in boot, on internet on files transmission.

installed official sp1, and everithing goes very well!!

Same here didn't try the RC versions but did go with the released version from windows update, so far no problems and its been used daily for a few weeks

I've now installed SP1, it may have made the Shift a little snappier, but it has broken 'suspend'. I rarely use suspend anyway, so I can live with it for now.

I installed SP1, which finished without a problem. Once the machine rebooted, though, the boot process would not go beyond the spinning circle on the startup screen.

Solution: Fn + F3...

Let's see what happens when I install SP1 right away.

I take it all back, I'm now having all sorts of connectivity problems, shagctrl crashes regularly, a lot of things break after using hibernate or suspend (which now magically works), so I'm now restoring a pre-sp1 backup.

why you have those problems and me no?

i think that shift and vista must be the same, or not?
