TechNet Plus subscribers can now access Windows Vista SP1 as a standalone update or integrated with Windows Vista SP1,' Microsoft revealed via a message posted on the Windows Vista TechCenter.

'On FebruWindows Vista Service Pack 1 was released to manufacturing. The 32-bit Vista SP1 Slipstream ISO Image was up for grabs since February 26, and on February 28, Microsoft also added the 64-bit version. On top of the fact that MSDN and TechNet subscribers got Vista SP1 RTM early, they are now able to access the bits for the integrated full DVD of the service pack. On February 4, 2008, Microsoft released Windows Vista SP1 to manufacturing and then made the service pack available to the 15,000 beta testers, as well as to OEMs, Volume License customers, MSDN and TechNet Plus subscribers.

The slipstream version permits the user to deploy Vista SP1 directly in a single installation. The same is not the case for the full DVD build of Vista SP1. In this context, SP1 would have to be installed on top of the operating system after Vista was deployed on a machine. The alternative is to have both Vista RTM and Vista SP1 RTM as two standalone products. A slipstream version of Windows Vista Service Pack 1 is essentially nothing more than the RTM version of the latest Windows client with the service pack already integrated. What I have is service stack updates, roll on updates, and security updates, optional updates of msu files in separate folders If I suppose, select all files in service stack updates, then can I presume that all the updates will be integrated.Microsoft is offering for download both the 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Vista SP1, the slipstream versions as ISO images. So, if I just could find that thread, I will be able to arrange by that order to a workable install media in windows update integration. I think the windows will try to update from top to bottom in the order in which you have included the update package. Or those programs like ntlilte, would auto sort the updates while integrating, i do not know. That mere selecting all updates without chronological order would not be working when you install the OS from the media. Your tips really helped me to integrate the sp1 with windows. I want to slipstream the window updates in the install media. I also remember that you have given the number of exact updates up to that time and in a chronological basis. I remember that you have enclosed the list of chronological window updates for windows 7 in one of your replies to the query long back.
