System is...
AMD x64 +4800 Dual Core.
3 GB Pc3200 RAM
80GB HDD (samsung I think)
Gigabyte K8N-SLI
I've Installed Vista on this thing before but reverted back to XP since then. I got a nasty virus about 3 months ago and had to reformat. Ever since then, my reinstalls have taken forever!! Both vista AND XP. The XP one is really strange, because usually it takes about 30 minutes but now it seems to take well over an hour!!!!
Ive even flashed my BIOS just to be sure.
I am currently trying to put Vista back on, and it seems to be freezing up and the "Completing installation..." part after everything is installed.
Could this be a hardware issue? Please point me in the right direction, thanks.
