Windows 10 Upgrade ._.
I can't directly upgrade from Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 because the upgrader won't work because reasons. So, in order to upgrade I basically need to reinstall from scratch. So, currently backing up what I can...
Oh, and this is because I uninstalled my GPU driver with the intent to roll back to an earlier driver... but apparently there are no drivers for Windows 8.1 that support the GTX 1650 Super. And yet it somehow worked fine when I installed it O.o?
Okay, still not working. At this point I'm giving up for the night. Tomorrow I'll back up what files I can, and just do a fresh installation.
More to the point, the install DVD is copying most of its contents to C:/ drive, but is failing to copy a 3.7 gigabyte folder which presumably is the actual installation archive -.-
Also, whatever tool that Windows 8.1 uses for burning DVDs is sucky, just takes infinite time to erase a disk. Currently booted up on my Linux drive to use Brasero, which just works.

@shyra I may take you up on that offer if I can't resolve the issue. Would need to make sure my mother would be okay with giving our address out to someone online, though.

@vantablack hmm, this gives me ideas for something I was thinking about in a writing project I'm planning
wow thanks to tvtropes i just learned mr. rogers is the reason recording TV on like a DVR or VCR or whatever isn't illegal
"In a case that made it all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1984, the TV and movie industries sued manufactures of VCRs on the grounds that recording their programming was copyright infringement. Enter Fred Rogers, who testified on behalf of home recording, saying he didn't mind if people recorded his shows and that it was a very good thing for families to be able to watch programs together whenever they wanted to, rather than being controlled by an arbitrary network. The court specifically cited his testimony in their decision. So in other words if you like not being tied down to Appointment Television, you can thank Mr. Rogers."

@ChlorideCull alright
@ChlorideCull Thinking though, I wonder if it is a graphics driver issue? Because I recently updated my nVidia driver for both Linux and Windows.
