Windows Service Packs

[cubies1982]

Anyone know if I can download and install Windows service packs for 64-bit so I don't have to go through the extremely slow Windows update?

I did a fresh install and was wondering if I could store all the updates on a CD without having to use the Windows update.

You could also download the complete Win7 SP1 .iso , so that you don't need to slipstream stuff yourself.

Microsoft tech support is said to verify that the IP actually belongs to them, but I never checked that for myself.  I have however verified the checksums of a number of these .iso files with those posted on Technet years ago, and they matched.  So these are the real deal.

Oh, thank you very much!
