Alex, it's good practice to leave posts in forums, as they could be referenced in the future. Editing should be done for typo's, clear errors etc. Updating the case/post with your results of ongoing efforts should better be added as a new post. That way, future readers of the forum will understand what problems you had and how you solved them. I'm sorry you had to reinstall, but I'm glad you could do it rather quickly.
