Windows Vista Service Pack 2 now available for download


How many of you still care about Windows Vista updates? While the team here at GadgetLite have switched to using Mac OS X for some time, we know that around 20.2% of you readers/visitors are Vista users, so I guess there is some point in telling you about this new upcoming Windows update. Microsoft has announced to the public about the release of Windows Vista SP2 for anyone who wants to test the latest update before it arrives on the Windows Updater.

Its been announced that this service pack 2 update will apply to both Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008. The interesting point I find is that they say most of the components of this update has in fact been available as standalone updates. In other words, this is like download an entire package of updates for your Windows instead of downloading them one by one.

“You can download the Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2 RC from our Customer Preview Program site or install through Windows Update using our Windows Update Experience Kit,” he adds.

“If you have the SP2 for Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 Beta installed, you will need to uninstall that first before installing the RC.”

Take a look at the full details of the SP2 here
