Are there other symptoms you have noticed, apart from a certain dullness?

I run SH5 on a Win7 64bit System with ServicePack 1 installed. I don't have any Problems.

On my desk top all went fine with Service pack 1 install
however on my lap top it crashed out on the restart and I had to
remove the service pack 1 install to make it work again.
My desk top is a clean windows 7 install But my lap top was
a vista upgrade to windows 7 so I wipe the lap top and started
again with just Windows 7 install. and then loaded service pack 1
and it worked without any problems at all.

So beware if you have an upgrade version as this might cause problems ??

i am not sure that all users had the same problem but seems that some people experience some issues with sp1 - in my case sp1 slow down my pc in sh5

On the desk top machine it reduced the amount a active ram used
from 21% down to 19% for some reason. but I have not noticed any
slow down while playing any game
