"Microsoft on Monday clarified that the phased rollout of Vista's first service pack (SP1) was not due to malfunctioning drivers, but because of issues that arose when these device drivers were reinstalled during the SP1 update process.
Mike Nash from Microsoft's Windows product management group said in a blog post last week that SP1 would be rolled out gradually due to a driver problem Microsoft uncovered during the testing phase.
Nash updated the Vista team blog Monday to say that it "was an issue with the way the device drivers were reinstalled during the SP1 update process, not with the drivers themselves – these drivers worked on Windows Vista release to manufacturing (RTM) and they work on Windows Vista SP1. For new PCs with Windows Vista SP1 preinstalled, this is not an issue," he wrote." ~pcmag.com
