I need some assistance here, last night I wiped my laptop clean by reinstalling windows 7 with an OEM ISO, now Im having all sorts of issues trying to get SP1 to install, as well as to get all the rest of the updates to force download off Microsoft. SP1 gets halfway through install and stops everytime, and windows update doesn’t download anything.  
I am connected to the internet by ethernet cable.  
Just trying to figure out solutions to make these work before I take the laptop and throw it out the window.

Already tried with Google, Only one that I havn’t done yet is using the ISO for it, but what I was attempting to find out is if anybody here knows a method or may have an idea of how to go about this. SP1 Installer throws no errors, just stays stuck at a certain point. Windows update does the same thing, it will either just stick at starting or at 36%.
