This morning I put together a new computer for work. Windows 7 still doesn't have all the updates after shutting down half a dozen times and installing hundreds of updates. It's been a while since I've done a clean install, but how long am I looking at updates?

if I remember correctly I started setting up windows around 1am and finished up around 5 am. But that included optimizing and updating.

I remember doing a fresh install with a pirated copy I made in 2010, didn't even have SP1. The updates were endless.

Looks like all the updates are finally done after a few hours. Got everything up and going except the video card. Not displaying anything when installed.

Graphics card wasn't working, so I raided our closet and found a 9500 GT 1 GB. Up and running now. I'm loving this SSD. Boots in 5 seconds and installs disc images super quick.
