Just feel this is strange as previously it use to just do it all in one massive lump .... Seems to be doing a tiny wee bit at a time Could thius be in the settings Two questions - do you have SP2 installed? And how fast is your connection? If you don't have SP2 installed, Microsoft Update will be downloading it and it's fecking huge. If you have a slow connection it will download it a bit at a time until you have all of it on your hard disk then it will install it. Other than that, it's a Spanish footballer (Fúcktifano) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that, it's a Spanish footballer (Fúcktifano) Other issue is whether or not you have legit Microsoft software (XP and Office)installed. I know a guy who's sitting within touching distance of my keyboard who hasn't and the autoupdate downloaded SP2 and now his machine at home is fecked. Rebuild is now in order to sort problem I think Moral of story .... Use dodgy software if you want but don't let your computer dowload SP2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
