Should I download Windows Vista Service Pack 1? What new abilities does it give and what does it fix on Vista?
And if I should where would I download it?

Hey,

Yes you should download SP1.

SP1 address common problems that where reported to Microsoft after Vista was released, problems ranged from security risks through to performance issues.

Download by visiting Windows Update.
