SP1 installed successfully in my 2 laptops successfully, including even the MS Silverlight. May be I should have read this: http://www.zdnet.com/blog/bott/should-you-install-wi...

prior to your SP1 installation though. You could refer to it in case you've similar SP1 installation issues.

Tried all ways, installed the readyness tool, given up now.

A friend came up, she downloaded Sp1 and it installed for her, very strange. So computer is running windows 7 pro SP1 64bit.

Amazing, she must have the touch.

computer now seems to be a bit more responsive, which is difficult as it was ok before


Still not found any sites that use Silverlight

It will have no ill effects on your system whatsoever

I thought IPlayer installed Silverlight!

Nope, Iplayer is flash, when it works.
i don't like the new Iplayer anyway, prefer the older version, You can't even do a search on the new one

Im pretty sure Sky player uses sliverlight or at least the live streaming version of sky news does.

Not to hijack the thread or anything, but I prefer get_iplayer to search, download and convert iPlayer programmes for offline viewing.

Always needs updating.

I have no idea about Skyplayer, never used it and I doubt I ever will. I be surprised if it does, but it may do on the Xbox I suppose
