Windows Forum / Windows Vista / Performance and Maintainance / May 2008Vista SP1 won't uninstall
After I installed Vista SP1, my internet connections disappeared, my Sidebar doesn't work right, and other problems. When I tried to uninstall SP1, It would log off, and complete(?) the first two stages of the service pack uninstall. Then the computer would reboot, complete the third and final stage...then I would get the message "Service pack did not uninstall, reverting changes" I have tried five or six times to uninstall, with the same results. I read somewhere to disable firewall and antivirius, make sure windows installer is enabled, then try it again. I don't have an internet connection anymore, so I will go one step further and uninstall my Norton Internet Security, then try these steps. Does anyone else have any suggestions, besides a drive reformat?

Have you tried a System Restore? C.B. SignatureIt is the responsibility and duty of everyone to help the underprivileged and unfortunate among us. I set up restore points before I installed the SP, but they vanished after I installed it. Also, my wife has a japanese version of XP on another drive (mine is on D, hers C), I was wondering if I could use her XP restore points?
