    By the way, the script you linked to *did* seem to do something the other one didn't appear to do, based on the fact that I got a "Updates installed" message after rebooting from the linked one from you and not the other one. Download is done, back after it does its thing. Cross your fingers

    *Roflmao2 Scared of what? You didn't have him do anything scary... I am excited.
    Although, I do know that the failures during the first reboot are always driver - related. Someone once found a log somewhere (on his system) on an update failure and posted it - I just can't remember where he found it.

    EDIT: I think it's in the C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther\setuperr.log
