Performance analysis toolsXperf (command line)Xperfview (Performance analyzer) (GUI)Xbootmgr (command line)

Target AudienceSystem builders, hardware manufacturers, applications & driver developers

Administrative improvements

BitLocker Drive Encryption (BDE)Additional multifactor authentication method that combines a key protected by the Trusted Platform Module with a startup key stored on a USB storage device and a user-generated personal identification number.Ability to encrypt local volumes other than the system volume

Group policy managementDefault is Group Policy editor (gpedit)New group policy tool provided with RSAT

RSAT will be available in Q2 08

Support for new hardware and standards

Extended Firmware Interface (EFI)SP1 will allow x64 computers to boot using the EFI.

Extended File Allocation Table (exFAT).Transactional FAT (TransFAT) functionality provides transaction protection for disk reads and writes (analogous to the transactional capabilities added to NTFS in Vista) Speeds up storage allocation and supports OEM extensibility so that OEMs can define parameters to specify characteristics of a device, such as performance, or create a unique ID (global unique identifier, or GUID) for the device.

Other options?

You cannot install SP1 offlineReasons1. The servicing stack needs to be updated. • Cannot be done offline when updates are

pending (which is typical for offline images).

2. SPs can contain updates for MSI-installed OS components • These updates cannot be installed offline.

You will still be able to apply future non-SP updates offline

Preparing & Deploying SP1

1. Create an SP1 image• Install SP1 online• Sysprep /generalize• PostReflect.exe

• PostReflect.exe must be run to match boot critical drivers with changes to components. Without this, image will never boot

• VSP1CLN.exe (optional)• Recapture

Installation Process overview

Diagnosing SP1 installations

Logs you can use to diagnose 1. "%windir%\\logs\\cbs\\cbs.log",2. "%windir%\\logs\\cbs\\cbs.persist.log",3. "%windir%\\winsxs\\poqexec.log",4. "%windir%\\winsxs\\pending.xml",5. "%windir%\\winsxs\\pending.xml.bad",6. "%windir%\\inf\\setupapi.dev.log",7. "%windir%\\windowsupdate.log“

Publically available sources to understand the logs:

Windows Deployment Error Diagnostic GuideOCSetup Log Diagnoser white paper

Look for:System codes: 0x8007nnnn (Winerror.h on MSDN)

CBS errors: 0x800fnnnn (common CBS errors)

Scavenging after installingThe VSP1CLN.EXE tool

Run if youWant to reclaim disk space Will not need to uninstall SP1

FunctionalityRemoves RTM files that have been superseded by SP1 (leaving SxS, drivers & LPs)Works in both Offline & Online modes

Offline: use WAIK or OPK versionOnline: use %windir%\system32\vsp1cln.exe

Marks Sp1 package as permanent and invisibleDriven by a static list of superseded files
