Jim,
You may very well be right. I just started with the 2010 stuff yesterday
and I found it extremely frustrating. Also, it seems it doesn't happen to
William. So if William has a solution, I think many of us (at least Steve
and I) would like to see what he has.

That's the issue with the stuff I have found on various forums including
Microsoft Technet and Community-- some say it (Reinstall message and
process) never happens to them; others say Virtual machines is the only
answer;  and some say it's by design.
