hello,

 

I just bought a new laptop carrying windows 8 and every time i get the message requesting i restart my system to install the latest changes, i get stuck on the "restarting screen" for hours.   On 2 occasions i waited 4 hours until i finally decided to

simply power down and restart , i even got a message the first time telling me the system would be done with updating/installing in 2 days.... 

 

 

 

i dont think its caused by a slow system as i run a hp Pavillion ( ENVY m6 ) with a 1.9 Ghz processor and 8 Gigabytes of RAM, it seems like plenty to me...

 

is there anyway i can have at lease a "status bar" on the restarting screen, that way at lease it would tell me if the system froze or is actually doing something?

 

Or better yet is there a way to FIX this issue at all? i remember long updates on vista but the worst i had was about 2 hours...

 

thank you
