    Like this? Clean Install Windows 7

    or this? Clean Install with a Upgrade Windows 7 Version

    or possibly this? Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7.

    Update: A Repair Install just solved Duchess' System Restore failure.

    Is there a way todo a fresh install of windows without having to running windows update a number of times?

    I've just got a new laptop and have allmy software installed and all the bloat removed, but i have to keep running windows update.

    I think i'm on my 5th or 6th update. Is there a way to get all the updates in one process?

    thanks
    One of the ways to reduce the number of updates is to install the SP1 version of Windows 7 as it contains all the updates from the time Windows 7 was released to the time SP1 was released.
