HX1 Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 The problem is going to be the space on your C:\ Drive as well... while extracting files and installing your looking at more disk usage.. when its finished you loose about 1.5 or more GB of space... so that will be an issue.. I had a System which was first installed as Vista , then SP1 over that and SP2 over that.. Then I upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate.. after I installed 7 SP1 and accidentally Removed the Service Pack Files in Disk Cleanup .. the OS corrupted ( probably because of glitches left behind from the Vista OS ).. Anyway to make a long story short I installed fresh and then did the SP1.. and with great results.. System performance is way better than it was and it is much cleaner and even a smaller installation... by a little... ( still wrapping all of that up to take of from where I was at beforehand and I am thinking of doing the same to this one.. ).. So IMO.. yo may get better results here from that.. and its been the case in many situation in SP's in the past...I had a slew of errors after I removed the files and many related to odd registry errors...

It fixed the problem, which is kinda frustrating, but not tooo bad. If you want to avoid that, try running a reg cleaner and then clearing some disk space - 2 gb is really low, after installation you might start bumping into paging file issues too!
