how am I supposed to install 132 update if it takes a year to do so
Just F9-ed my system for clean install (twice today for CS) and then- as always- the ordeal of installing a hugh bunch of updates... first check for updates and bang: 132 with a total of 452 meg. I know from previous installations it takes ridiculously long if not forever to get them installed without the risk of failed updates.
Anyway, just want to install SP1 but that one only shows up after doing the first batch of 132 as I noticed this afternoon.
This afternoon I did a clean install and installed 134 updates, but after that my system was screwed somehow. Don't know what went wrong but I couldn't boot and later it said sth like missing profile so I did another clean install cause I'm sick and tired of all the fiddling. That's where I am right now.
Soooo... what am I supposed to do?
Can I skip the individual updates and install SP1 instead?
I've tried to hide all the 132 updates hoping SP1 would show up after a second search for updates but windows update doesn't like that particular trick as SP1 doesn't show up at all...
BTW: 38 min. later since I started downloading it's still at 0% (???)
suggestions on this one, anybody.
