I have an Acer netbook which I upgraded from Windows 7 Started Edition to
Windows Home Premium. The Netbook has 2 Gig RAM and plenty of HD space
(over 100 GIG ). The SP1 update downloads completely through Windows
update, It goes through "installing OK", and it says successful
installation, then asks to reboot, it goes through a Windows background
"Configuring Service pack" and it then....... "Failure configuring Service
pack. Reverting Changes. Do not turn off your computer" .... it takes a
long time and restarts without the SP1.... Very frustrating....

Any ideas? mac
