Just re-installed windows 7 64bit brand new. I've noticed two times recently that after I get all bunch of windows automatic scheduled updates I had problems with rebooting as normal. To be more specifically, the screen get stuck at 15% configuring service pack..
I never had this problem before and I use the sale old Windows service Pack1 CD that I bought 2 years before. Is this some kind of update bug in the updates?
If you can obtain a windows 7 sp1 integrated iso you can use your current key with the newer disc and avoid the sp1 update altogether.
This is the approach I have taken to since xp had its first service pack. The integrated fresh installs always seemed a little faster and less resistant to future change.
Download Windows 7 ISO
towards the bottom of the page.
Keep in mind it's completely useless if you don't have a legit key.
Also make sure to download the version you have i.e. home, ultimate, pro
So that your key will match with the version installed.
There is actually a way to use your current install disc and an application to make your own integrated sp1 install disc, but I found this to be slightly problematic and time consuming for someone unfamiliar with the process.
