Windows 7 Service pack is causing problems, people are having issues with service pack 1 where it is pushed out from a WSUS server. Apparently you get a “C00000034 fatal error” which then means a reinstall of the operating system. I feel its always wise not to jump into new OS’s even though the urge is there to be up with the latest and greatest. The reg is reporting this
