Again HUH?!?!?!?!?!

Btw windows update takes a "little" more than an hour to catch up after a clean install,in some cases more than a day in your own admission at least three hours.
To each his own... doesn't matter to me. Don't like my method, you don't have to use it.

Also, Windows Update has never taken "more than a day" to update and that's including the time it takes to download the files - maybe it would take that long on a dial-up connection because of the painfully slow download speed. You must have misunderstood something, takes me about 3 hours to install windows, update drivers and get all my software/files copied back over.

Next you're gonna say there's no need to have a backup copy of your files...
