Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Slow Build 16299 for PC

In UK, this can be difficult as some ISPs lock down routers with passwords that you cannot get access to. Usually hunting around web yu can find out required information, but ISPs are not always forthcoming more or less refusing to help until you use the big stick threat of going elsewhere.

 

You must have a powerful cpu/ssd combo.

 

This one took me a total of 28 minutes, but I did stop and make the ISO. Otherwise it would have taken the 22 minutes that it normally does.


Nice, fast and easy. No problems with this one.

 

Not really. This is a just a cheap little Haswell system with a regular SSD, nothing special. The 5 minutes might be an exaggeration, I don't think that it takes much longer than 3 minutes but I will time it next time.

 

Same here, about 5 Minutes. And, yes I do. Also, I create the ISOs on a separate internal 1TB spinner....so it's read "A", write "B", read "A", write "B", etc. "A" is a NMVe 951 SSD. Heads on spinner don't have to do much traveling around....just dump data.

 

Virgin Media's coverage in England is patchy to say the least. Fortunately I live in one of their areas.

 

OK, if that makes a difference then my read drive is my C: drive which is a separate SSD than my write drive, which is also an SSD. I did not know that made a difference but if it does I am using two separate SSDs for the creation of my ISOs, separate read and write drives.

I set up my system in a very complex manner but I use 4 separate SSDs for different functions on my system. It might seem convoluted, but it works for what I use my system for.

 

It fixed my missing DVD drive.

Installed 16299 this morning and it was a somewhat faster install...about 45 minutes. WU also installed NVidia driver 8778 and it seems to be working fine. I will test some more tonight.

My Skippy build just did that about 20 minutes ago. My laptop with the fast build has the Intel Video card.

 

I think it is just the Nvidia video cards that have the issue - and not sure it is all of them.
