    Anyone here with SZ4 succeed installed Vista SP1?? and it's not available at Windows update , did download it from Windows download center, and tried few times Manuel .. at Stage 3 via 100% .. and screen changes to "service pack did not install, Reverting changes, Do not turn of off your computer.. any one else with SZ4 has same problem???

    Did read some places that Sigma sound drivers interrupt the installation..

    We've had a few customers with that problem also and they had to reinstall Windows to be able to apply the SP1 on Vista.
