My motherboard isn't fucked, but i'm having to download the ISO and make a USB stick and do a fresh install to solve my issues. Didn't want to do that originally as I wanted to keep all my apps etc., but as the refresh install nuked them anyway then why the fuck not? My data is all seperate from my windows (and safe, or at least it was till my dropbox account ran out of space...).

Just for giggles, I've attached the file that refresh installer left on my desktop to handily let me know what it'd removed.

Arrrrgghghghgh! Seems my laptop battery is fucked, as it just turned off stone dead with 62% supposedly remaining. 

I was running the media creation tool at the time, about 60% into downloading the iso to make a bootable USB stick.  The tool now won't run, presumably because there's a bunch of temp data confusing it, but I can't find where it's stored it.

Now I can't even download your ISO link, it's giving a 403 error.

Yeah that link looks dead.

I'm currently putting it on my dedicated server if you can wait about 30 mins.

Got the media creation tool to load by running as administrator. Set it to make a USB stick, left it and came back to a 'Something happened' error screen. Don't know if that's because I didn't touch it and the screen went off/possibly to sleep. Running it again now, but if it fails again I'll happily grab it off your server!

How do you make the ISO into a bootable USB stick? I vaguely remember doing it with windows 8, but not how I did it :$

I think the Milky one used unetbootin.

I think even using win32 image writer would work too.

He also said he did it on Mac, so I ignored everything he said and just admired his single-geared bike, beard and dog-eared Jean Paul Sartre book.

Yeah, I looked for some torrents too. Seems far too much hassle just to get a bloody ISO.

The dedicated server is definitely one of my better investments. Well worth the £30something it costs per year.

I bet it still doesn't work for you though.

All working!

I'm still amazed at how quickly things go these days. Not so long ago reinstalling windows was a good couple of hours or so, and then god knows howlong downloaiding updates on a shitty slow connection. 

Now it's less than 15 minutes using a USB 3 memory stick, an SSD and my stupid-fast broadband and I'm all setup, updated, Chrome installed (and synced to my previous settings/extensions). And now I can change my desktop picture!!?!!!!":"111
