i am right now installing sp1 on my lappy whose usual size was 130.6 mb. But i am sure its going to take a lot of time to restart machine after booting.
Also i wanted to ask is, the windows 7 on my desktop is not validated, but i am downloading the iso file which is provided my microsoft by using the genuine validation of my laptop. Will it work for my desktop os(windows 7 64-bit)

For all those you are getting errors on installing updates via Window Update.
Install this tool first:

i want to try it on my desktop which has a cr@@@ed windows 7 professional 64bit. i havent loaded any of the updates from WU. does any know how to install sp1 on a p!r@TeP os?
Got the update (64 bit professional) using windows update (around 85 MB only), it took approx 20 - 25 min 2 restart and done with success.
Initial impression is that its taking 2-3 sec more to shows user name post boot. I also observed that time taken to show the desktop after I enter my pwd is increased a bit. It coule be very specific but these are first thing I noticed.

Damn, still getting the error after the hotfix via WU.. :|
Windows downloaded the update to my C:/ Drive and failed to install them about 4 times in a row, can anyone tell me where to locate the update files so that i can delete them? :|
