Le Pingouin
Many thanks from having been a lurker on this thread. I have just completed the process (about 3 hours in all) and complete success

This was particularly appreciated, since the supposed back-up disc which came with the machine (2nd hand) was quite useless! From my particular perspective, the opening choice of the setup screen (Full update or not) was (for me) only suitable WITHOUT the updates. Trying to use the update version caused the process to 'hang' very early in the sequence (17%). May well be just my machine. Thank you again
