Installation of Vista Edition Family Premium disk reformatted.

I want to reformat my hard drive and do a clean install. I have Vista Home Premium OEM (bought from Newegg for this PC, I built). I have to install original OEM disk, then go to SP1 and then install SP2? I already downloaded the standalones for SP1 and SP2 from Microsoft.

I would have liked to go to Win 7, but finances are extremely limited at the moment. If a new installation will (or should) fix my problems with uninstall AVG 2011. He fubarred my system really bad.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated

Vista requires Sp1 before installing SP2.  Otherwise, there are some problems that appear in the system.  Do things in order as you list above and everything will be fine.  Enjoy.
