Ok, sorry thats that page I started the upgrade from. The "boot from disk /thumb" had me messed up. I thought you had to have a copy already. I see now you download with the help of the ISO download tool to generate said media copy. The rest makes sense now.
I did do a complete reset already, and ran magician and did the firmware update. It is about 85% as fast as when I first did the upgrade, so i will leave it as is now. Closet bound it is.
The info Megahertz provided will work on my current machine also if I run into problems since Windows was installed by the place I purchased it from and I dont have a copy for this PC either.
Sorry to be thickheaded, thats why I am here, to figure out how to fix that which I cant on my own.
Thanks to everyone for all the input.
Gonna mark as solved
