Our service provider has fiber optic, but it hasn't made it into our town yet...boooohoooolesterb wrote:After several days of frustration with a slow computer, I finally bit the bullet today. I wiped the whole thing and reinstalled the OS. Now I am in the middle of putting my software collection back together.
After all of this, IT HAD BETTER WORK BETTER. I'm not guaranteeing what will happen if it doesn't.
I've lost several days of what should have been productive writing time. The windows installer was always running, and taking up to 100% of the bandwidth. At times up to six incidents of it were running at the same time. It kept downloading the same updates and trying to install them. I couldn't install anything or even uninstall anything. And all the time it was excruciatingly slow. I tried a refresh keeping my files. Wouldn't do it. I tried a refresh zapping my files. No go. So I downloaded the latest Windows 10 ISO, wiped the hard drive, and reinstalled.
Or rather, I'm reinstalling because my brother in law's internet leaves a few things to be desired. They are putting in fiber optic, but it won't get here until next week.

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.

Well, I'm probably within a few hours of some of the other people on this forum. Spent the last couple of days at the Penn Vall Christian Retreat.
