| | Very slow install I have found a lot of my games from pre vista take an extremely long time to install. BF2 for instance took nearly 25 mins to completely install. This is on a Dell dimension xps Gen 4. 3.60 Ghz processor, 2 GiG of Ram, and a 260 gig HDD. Has anyone had similar experiences with this problem? |

I came across a machine last week with a Promise controller, of which had extremely poor disk performance, probably due to the driver. -- Paul Smith, Yeovil, UK.
