Hi Arthur,

This is what I did.  It worked fine, but it took bloody ages, I suggest you
do it late in the day and let the machine reboot it self overnite -
seriously it took about 3 hours all up.

<< http://windows.microsoft.com/uninstallwindows7sp1>>

This assumes that your Original Version of Windows 7 comes *without* SP1.
If your original version already has SP1 included it seems you are in big
trouble.

Cheers
Darryl

One question. How do I roll back SP1?

Thx,
Arthur
