[RESOLVED] No service pack, should I get one?

x86 is Intel 32-bit.

Unlike other OSes, you do need to install SP1 first, then SP2 for Vista.

Oh ok.

Also should I do all the updates available in WU, (Important, and recommended) before I do SP1?

I install the OS
Sp1
Sp2
Antivirus

Now I installalll the updates. Critical and important only normally.

Ok, so.. by burning the SP .exe file to a CD, I'll just drag the file to the folder to burn it right? No need of a spacial program? It's not like a .rar or iso, so I'm assuming I can just drag it over.

Right, its not like burning an ISO file. You can burn .rar, zips, exe's etc without any special programs.

Ok good. Am doing a backup and restore right now. Will install SP1 after this and a defrag, will post back when I'm done or if I have further questions. Thanks everyone for the help so far(:

Ok, SP1 and 2 is done. Everything seems to be running smooth. I haven't really noticed any changes, just seems the same as before. They both did slow the computer down when they were done, restarting made things normal. I haven't encountered any other problems after that. I am doing just about all the Microsoft Updates right now. Thanks again to everyone! I probably would've made a huge mistake if I wouldn't done it with out any help(:

Thanks for posting back.
