This is a long story. IT starts with me copying my steam folder from my desktop to my laptop hdd by using sata cables and power to hook it up with the desktop. No problems as i have done this before.
NOPE.
someone must have interfered and now it went all poop and didnt post from then. Not to worry though because the first thing i did after i got it a few months ago is run the samsung recovery thing which made an image on the hdd itself, and i did one image on my desktop somewhere. The only problem was that was windows 8 and i had already started upgraded to windows 8.1.
So i recover from the image already on the device by using some UEFI samsung shiznit that worked well and dandy. OS booted and worked no problem.
But we all know how much of a poop Windows 8 is so i thought ok its time to upgrade it to windows 8.
Pretty simple, or so i thought. Just had to install the KB2701398 update.
WRONG>
it wont update at all.
so i went and refreshed.
Still wouldnt download that particular update. I say download because it refuses to start downloading.
So i thought, okay, myabe i need some other update before this. So i select all the updates and do them, but they keep installing and restarting. And go on till i go down to around 22 updates from 96updates that there were.
But now it just refuses to do the update.
All the updates till now werent smooth either. after each batch it would do i would have to run trouble shooter to make it fix some weird random crap. Without whcih the updater gives codes like 80080008 etc.(googled them up said it was firewall issue but i had disabled it already so...)..
So now what to do.
UPDATE: it failed an update. but it wanted to reboot and now its suck at "preparing to configure windows"
UPDATE 2: restarting a couple of times un-stuck it. it posted
