Fed up with sluggish Windows Vista ? Try Vista SP1 RC

If you are one of the many users who is tired with a sluggish Windows Vista even on a high-end system ( with more than 2GB of RAM and a dual core processor ) then it’s time you give Windows Vista SP1 RC a try.

The Vista SP1 Release Candidate fixes a lot of things in the sluggish Windows OS. Here are some of the noticeable changes I found in my system after installing Windows Vista SP1 RC :

Start-up and shutdown of Vista is now much quicker. My laptop is now shutting down in less than half the time it earlier used.
Checking for Windows updates now takes 1/4th the time it earlier used to take.
Time taken for moving or copying files across partitions has decreased.
Extracting and creating zip files is faster now.
On an overall basis, Windows Vista is more responsive now.

These are just some of the improvements I have noticed. You can find a more complete list of what is included in Service Pack1 here.

Go try Windows Vista SP1 RC.

P.S. – I recommend using Windows Update to get Vista SP1 RC.

But still, it is Vista.
Vista sucks…
More patches = more vulnarabilities.
They could have built a good OS in the first place, rather than trying to add bells an whistles to Vista.

Hi Niyaz I agree with that. But still SP1 for Vista is a step ahead for Microsoft. It fixes many of Vista’s quirks and increases it performance.

Let SP2 release for Vista. I think then it will be as good as Windows XP.
