Good thing I started our software update today and not Friday.

I've had our latest Accounting and Estimating Software update CDs on my desk for a month. Figured I should get it done before All the Year End bull crap I have to deal with gets going.

Started at 8am. Still going. Doesn't help that I have had to restart my server about 6 times so far. Waiting on this sucker to restart one last time to confirm the Estimating software is up and running. Then its on to the work stations.

I might get done before 5. Maybe. Hopefully.

Ah the joy of waiting for upgrades. My wife's computer crapped out last week, looks like the harddrive finally had too many bad sectors to live. Insert blank HDD, load up WinXP, transfer everything to new drive, upgrade to Vista, waiting on Vista to get SP1 then upgrading back to Windows 7. The true money in a computer technician is getting stuck waiting to see if there's a pop-up that he has to approve otherwise the whole upgrade/install waits for him to get back.

Why don't you just do a fresh install of 7?

Don't have the disc for it. OU Engineering has a site you can download 7 for free so I had to get the computer back to a state of being able to download 7.
