Problem installing Windows 10

I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop, 64bit, 4 gig ram, running Windows 7 and am having lot of trouble trying to install Windows 10. My computer is elegible for the upgrade and I have it on my desktop computer and like it so want to upgrade this one too.

When I click on the little Windows 10 upgrade icon in the system tray in the lower right, a window opens that says it is downloading Windows 10. It gets to 99% and stays that way for about 30 minutes and then the window changes to the green bar and says "Downloading Windows 10" with the progress bar showing the green area moving to the right. My computer passed the upgrade test from the website.

It has been that way for about 6 hours now and the hard drive is blinking which indicates to me that something is happening. Should it take this long? I don't remember this kind of problem when I upgraded my desktop computer. Should I just let it continue or should I reboot and see what happens? Any ideas are welcome.

Depends how fast your internet connection is. If it's slow, the download could take a LONG time.
