I recently installed the standalone SP1 package on a
friend's new HP notebook and the installation went
perfectly fine. It took about 32 minutes.

Thank you Don and Carey for the very fast response. I have checked the
computer against the list of items in the referenced article and none seems
to apply to this computer. All other updates are complete. I have downloaded
the standalone Service Pack, but am reluctant to install it. I think I might
hold off for a couple of weeks to see if it becomes available through normal
channels. I do have Symantec Anti-virus installed, but not one of the listed
programs, unless Live Update is problematic for the SP.
Again thanks very much for the quick response.
