In all my many years of doing builds, I've always been of the opinion that basic drivers should be installed first before anything else is done on a new system. So, even before service packs, or Windows Updates, I would install motherboard chipset, video card, sound, and network drivers before patching the OS itself.
With Vista, I've come across some behavior that makes me think this might be in error. So, I've taken to installing SP1 (RC1) immediately prior to installing anything else.
So, I'm probably just being paranoid, but I'm curious what you all do?
