Windows Vista SP1 Prerequisite KB937287

Back in February, we posted about the release of a couple of prerequisites for Windows Vista Service Pack 1. While several million customers installed the updates successfully, you may have read that a few customers experienced an endless reboot cycle while installing one of the prerequisites: KB937287, the Servicing Stack Update (SSU), which contains the Service Pack 1 installation program.

As posted last month on the Windows Vista blog, we suspended automatic distribution of the SSU while we investigated the problem. Over the past few weeks, we’ve learned a lot more about the problem and have taken steps to address the issue. Today, we’d like to let you know that we are resuming automatic distribution of the SSU tomorrow and provide more clarity on what happened.

Can’t resume Windows from hibernate on your 32-processor supercomputer? Apply this patch.

It’s not uncommon to come across a patch for a software problem you’ve never heard of or thought was possible. In most cases they’re caused by an unconventional use-case or a bad combination of hardware/software configurations. Sometimes the symptoms are so exceptional it makes you ponder about who in the world would be affected by it in the first place. I wouldn’t be surprised if in this case it was just one person. The Microsoft KB article speaks for itself.

A multiprocessor computer that is running Windows Vista or Windows XP stops responding on a black screen after you resume the computer from hibernation

I beg to ask, who discovered the problem, what was the fault, who uses a consumer operating system on a supercomputer and what would happen if you had 31 or 33 processor?
