    hi

    i was wondering if anyone else has had probs with the samsung recovery solution on the R780.

    I have always used samsung lappies and found RS to be very stable however, i went to do a restore yesterday and a third way through restoring a 29gig backup, it stated error cannot read from archive, archive is corrupt.

    So i did a fresh install and backup again without all the software just drivers, i restored again but it got half way through and again stated corrupt archive (file size was about 15 gig) both times it died at the 9.5gb mark

    This seems odd for what was reliable. Also anyone had any luck with samsung update, finds three updates but sticks at the download screen and bums out if you try to select all items for download at once.

    BTW backups where stored on d partition
