Question

What changes made in os after win 7 sp1 installation?

Answer 1

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 can take a considerable amount of time - up to an hour on many computers - to install. During installation, even a fairly fast computer will operate slowly, and some systems may be difficult to use at all. Service Pack 1 is a critical update for Windows 7 - it is a prerequisite for future updates and security fixes from Microsoft. Not distributing it is not an option.

Manually installing Service Pack 1 via Windows Updates before we push it out on campus allows you to install the upgrade at your convenience. If you do not wish to go through these steps, you can wait for us to push the update out to your computer.

If the Service Pack install fails when you try to install it, or when we push it out, please contact the UT Service Center at x4357.
