*Sigh*

I’m working on repairing a relative’s computer and had to reformat and install Windows 7, using a disc including all updates up to November 2012.

Due to my crappy satellite internet, which has a cap on downloads except during 2:00 a.m. - 7:00 a.m., I got up at 2:00 a.m. to start the download process for Microsoft Update and AVG Free. 1.3 GB in Microsoft updates plus AVG, and a couple hours later, all those updates are finished downloading, now it’s taking over an hour just to install them.

Not to mention, once I reboot the computer, there’s going to be even more updates to download since prerequisites, like Service Packs, were just downloaded.

I have a feeling it’s going to be another night before I get this thing fully functional.

The bad thing? I had to do this back in December to fix another computer from another relative, my brother.
