i'll probably wait for the integrated iso to leak and then do a clean install.

Yeh, I installed it just for the peace of mind but once you can intergrate it I will do that and then do a clean install.

Good news. So we can’t be too far away from its official release.

When is the expected release date?

So what if it isn't it can be un-installed or just format.

Meh, 28th Jan is so close. You may as well wait.

I'll be waiting. Clean install since I've been needing a new main HDD.

I'm gonna wait for the official release, I installed the beta version on the works machine back in the summer so I'm in no rush.

Yep

How to cleanup old hot fix information after installing SP1 (cleanup tool)
Once Service Pack 1 is installed you may opt to remove old information regarding old hot fixes and the SP1 un-installation tool as well. Note that if you perform this step you can NEVER remove SP1!

On most systems you should expect between 500MB and 1.5GB of space recovered by running this program. To run you must launch a command prompt with Administrator privileges, then execute the following command:

dism /online /cleanup-image /spsuperseded

This command will take between 5 and 15 minutes to complete, when completed you will now have SP1 fully integrated with no un-installation option. Enjoy the reclaimed disk space!

Whats the difference between SP1 and having installed all the Windows Updates until this point?

deadite66 · 15 Jan 2011 at 12:34

gained 2.7GB cleaning up services packs.

SP1 x64 installed and working fine.

robinbredin · 15 Jan 2011 at 13:37

I'm only getting 13kb/s as a download speed, there must be a lot of people downloading it.

There's tons of updates that fix bugs that are never released on Windows Update.

I will do a format anyway once I get a genuine SP1 Intergrated ISO.
