I know... but in this old Celeron, appears 2 hours... but, 2 hours for me, it's ok... now, in my Aspire, the time goes to 15 hours.... Windows XP, for example, installs in just 21 minutes, in this same Aspire... :-( Well, do you know if your friend has used some different flag to install? Some boot option? Thanks, my friend, and sorry to bother you with this..
