What is the invisible change? I wish I knew, but I can't see it, and that's part of the reason I'm coming to the forums with this problem in the first place. While I may not be an absolute expert on computers, I do know how to do a bit of my own research. However, faced with a problem that I...

I have about 12 updates that are taking way too long to install. Right now they're at 65%, tomorrow they might be at 68%, or even 72%. But the point is that they never completely install.
