Vista SP1

Using a Toshiba Satellite A215, just installed the SP1 and my audio driver
now says "No Audio Output Device is installed."

Could someone please fix this? I'm going back to a system restore, but it's
quite annoying to have these obvious bugs in a service pack. I expect more
from Microsoft.
 
Did Windows Update offer Vista SP1 or did you choose to install it manually?

What anti-virus application or security suite is installed? What
anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall
(if any)? Were any of these applications running when you installed SP1?
=============================
Unlimited installation and compatibility support for Vista SP1 is available
at no charge through 18 Mar-09

I have it set up so that Windows Update asks me before it installs anything,
but it first told me to install the important update by placing the little
icon at the bottom of the screen.

I have AVG, Avast and Spybot running. No other firewall or security suites
were running at the time of the install, other than Defender.

You have two (2) anti-virus applications installed and loading at boot *and*
they were both running when you attempted to install SP1? No wonder the
install failed!

Uninstall either AVG or Avast via Add/Remove Programs & reboot.

Disable Spybot Tea Timer, if enabled. See
http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=32409

Now try the installation again. If no joy, open a free support incident.
