Windows 8.1 Refresh / Restart HELP!

[bbg404]

Hello all, I've decided its time to do a fresh install of windows 8.1 on my system just to get rid of any errors and make sure its clean and fresh!

Basically I've tried the built in options to Refresh and / or Remove everything but nothing seems to work!

I've also booted direct from disc and it still wont do it

I'm running an SSD with the OS and programs on and a 3TB hard drive for documents, I've had it set so it defaults to this location

I thought this was causing the issue so I went and unplugged the 3tb hoping having only the SSD plugged in would let me restore my system but once I removed the 3tb I couldn't then sign in

arrrrrrrrgh someone help please

Well that eventually worked somehow haha thank gos it's clean fresh and fast!!

I've installed all windows updates and it's quick!

I quickly tried upgrading and installing Windows 10 update but the app / program just closed once it got to 100% so I've gave up for tonight system refresh will resume in the morning

That's a point, for every one I've done, I've used this..

http://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/software-download/windows10

That's the link I used. instead of clicking run on both the links it takes you through I saved them on the desktop and opened them from there and it worked first time

I'm not running Windows 10, 8.1 was fast on my system but 10 is definitely quicker
